10-inch prospecting gold pan

The Garrett 10" Backpacker Gold Pan in green is built for field prospectors who need a compact, lightweight pan for sampling streams and dry washes. Its reduced diameter keeps weight low while still providing enough surface area to process material quickly. The pan fits inside Garrett backpacks so it travels easily on foot or by bike. Beginners and experienced panners alike can use it for both wet and dry work.

Sustained field use

The pan handles repeated loading and agitation without fatigue thanks to its rigid yet light construction. Four quarter-inch riffles trap fine gold during long panning sessions, reducing the need for constant re-classifying. The green colour improves contrast against gold flakes in bright sunlight, helping the eye spot colour faster over hours of work. It performs equally well when finishing concentrates at camp after a full day on the creek.

Four 1/4-inch riffles

The riffle geometry is the single feature that determines whether this pan matches a prospector's recovery goals. Buyers who need deeper or more aggressive riffles for heavy black-sand loads will find the quarter-inch profile limiting. Those focused on fine gold retention in lighter material will benefit from the precise trap spacing. No other specification overrides this choice.
