Gold Prospecting T.V. Shows

So sick of these fake gold prospecting shows.

Keene 140s Drywasher Review

Keene 140s Drywasher – Finding Gold Nuggets

Finding gold prospecting tool. This Keene 140s is a medium sized drywasher that can easily keep two gold prospectors busy and recover the smallest gold.

The Keene 140s drywasher is one of the most popular gold drywashers! It’s not a new machine, it’s actually been out a number of years, and during that time has developed a large loyal following from gold prospectors in the Southwest.
