Working the Drywasher is a professionally produced instructional DVD for prospectors who own a drywasher, are learning how to operate one, or are considering adding drywashing equipment to their gold-recovery operation.
Hosted by experienced prospector Mojave John, this approximately one-hour program explains the principles behind drywasher design before demonstrating the equipment under actual desert prospecting conditions.
The video covers both small testing units and larger production machines, helping viewers understand how drywashers can be used to locate and process gold-bearing material in areas where water is scarce or unavailable.
The program is divided into two primary sections.
The first portion discusses how drywashers work, along with important setup considerations and available equipment options. The second portion moves into the desert for practical demonstrations using two different types of drywashers.
Viewers see a small sniping-style drywasher used to test prospective areas for gold, followed by a larger production drywasher used to process greater quantities of material.
