Gold and Salt Pans
Gold and salt flats, reportedly first discovered and used by primitive man thousands of years ago, are a unique and unique flat surface that are used for a variety of industrial and mining purposes. Commonly used in mining operations, gold and salt flats can help workers to quickly and efficiently detect presence of gold or salt in rock outcrops and other mineral surfaces.
Gold and salt flat pans are generally made of steel, tin, aluminum or other metal based substances. These substances, which have a range of thickness, help the worker to increase the effectiveness of the pans. Once someone has identified where the gold or salt could be found, they simply place the pan in the area, pour a solvent over the top, and start to vibrate the surface. The vibration of the metal creates small sparkles that further help in detecting the presence of gold or salt.
The application of gold and salt pans is not solely limited to mining operations. This technique is also used in gemology and mineralogy to identify the differences between gemstones and the quality of their cuts. Jewelers who use this technique may use the gold or salt panning to detect inclusions or blemishes in diamonds and other gemstones. This is especially useful for larger gemstones that are inclusions difficult to identify.
Many gem dealers also use gold and salt pans to identify natural coloration, or despite the fact that a gemstone may have been artificially colored. This type of detection is especially important when it comes to determining the value of jewelry.
Gold and salt flats are a powerful tool and have been used for centuries by miners, gemologists, and jewelry dealers r to identify valuable materials and natural beauty. By vibrating the metal surface of the pan, workers are able to detect minute particles which give an indication of where to look on the outcrops. This technique is an essential part of many areas in the gem and mineral trade, ensuring accurate appraisals and proper value determination of gemstones and other minerals.
