Each was panned from a river bed by hand. Due to its high density, gold sinks to the bottom of the gold pan or sluice box, while sand and mud are washed away by the current. Alluvial gold is known as Seifengold in German. The medieval word sifen, from which this term derives, means 'to drip' or 'to trickle'. particle size: 0.01 to 0.25 cm.
