How do you tell if the flakes in the silt are gold?

To determine if the flakes in the silt are gold, you can use a gold pan and water to pan for gold. Gold is very dense, so it will sink to the bottom of the pan. Swirl the pan to wash away lighter materials and concentrate the gold flakes at the bottom. You can also use a magnifying glass to examine the color and shape of the flakes closely - gold flakes will have a distinctive bright yellow color and often have a flattened, irregular shape.
