Gold Trapper Gold Pan – New Rectangular and Round Hybrid Design

A Modern Redesign of the Original Gold Grabber Pan

The Gold Trapper Gold Pan combines the familiar discharge end of a traditional round gold pan with a rectangular working area that provides greater control over your material.

This newly released pan is an updated version of the original Gold Grabber pan, which is no longer manufactured. The distinctive 15-by-11-inch shape provides steep sides, five deep angled riffles, and a textured bottom designed to help retain gold while quickly removing lighter material.

Hybrid Gold Pan Design

The rounded discharge end allows you to wash material away using familiar gold-panning techniques. The rectangular back provides a comfortable working area that makes it easier to control, stratify, and inspect concentrates.

Its compact shape also fits inside many standard 5-gallon buckets and backpacks for easier transportation.

Ready to Use

The built-in textured bottom gives the Gold Trapper a slightly roughened surface for better control of fine gold and black sand. Unlike many smooth plastic pans, it does not require sanding or roughing before its first use.

Wash the pan with dish soap and water before use to remove any manufacturing residue or oils.

Newly Released!  An updated version of the old Gold Grabber pan which is no longer manufactured.  These Gold Trapper pans are a unique blend of rectangular and round gold pans. The normal discharge end is round like a conventional gold pan while the back end is rectangular to make it easier to work the material. The Gold Trapper pan is 15 inches long and 11 inches wide. Green in color.

Featuring 5 deep, angled riffles and steep sides, the Gold Trapper allows you to capture more gold.  The steep sides force material down and allow you to hold more material.  Unlike traditional round gold pans that hold the same volume the Gold Trapper fits into a 5 gallon bucket or backpack for easy transport. 

The Gold Trapper gold pan is ready to use with no conditioning needed due to the built in, "sandblasted" bottom which requires no roughing up or break ion.
