Finding Gold & Reclaiming Silver

This video was shot on the rocky Atlantic beach in Dakar, Senegal. The first section shows a man recovering tiny flakes of gold from the ocean. He washes sand along a sluice where the heavier gold particles are trapped in a piece of fabric. The trapped material is panned to recover the gold. What we see is the result of a day’s work. The next section shows a group of Guinean men refining scraps from a jewelry workshop. They use fire, acid and a sluice to recover every pennyweight of silver.
