Gold diggers, or prospectors, primarily used tools such as pans, sluice boxes, and picks for their mining activities. Gold pans allowed them to sift through sediment in rivers or streams to separate gold from other materials. Sluice boxes facilitated the process by using water to wash away lighter materials while trapping heavier gold particles. Additionally, they often employed shovels, buckets, and sometimes more advanced equipment like rockers or hydraulic monitors for larger scale operations.
