Matrix Gold Prospecting: Recommended Workflow

1. Preliminary Site Assessment and Inspection:

   • Conduct a thorough assessment of potential sites.
   • Gather existing geological data, check for permits, and assess environmental impacts.

2. Prospecting (Surface Exploration):

   Alluvium & Eluvium Prospecting:

   • Explore riverbed sediments (alluvial deposits) using panning methods or sluicing techniques.
   • Investigate soil horizons above bedrock for loose gold particles and heavy minerals.

3. Rock Prospecting:

   • Examine exposed rock surfaces, outcrops, and veins for visible gold indicators such as quartz-rich structures like the one found in Busia
   • Collect samples from promising locations to be assayed.

4. Geophysical Surveys:

   • Conduct magnetometric and proton surveys to identify subsurface structures, faults, or anomalies that may host mineralization.

5. Diamond Core Drilling (Deep Exploration): – Based on the results of geophysics and surface prospecting; drill deep into targeted areas to collect samples for detailed analysis.

Important Consideration:

Start Your Own Gold Mine strongly advises miners against “random searching” or unguided exploration due to several reasons:

• Wastage of Resources: Unstructured searches can lead to unnecessary expenditures on equipment, labor, and time.
• Environmental Impact: Indiscriminate digging causes environmental degradation without guaranteeing results.

Recommendation:

Engaging experienced geological consultants like Start Your Own Gold Mine ensures systematic exploration guided by technical expertise. This approach maximizes the chances of success while minimizing wasteful spending and adverse impacts on the environment.—
