The Mini Bucket is a mixture of our Originals and Savage paydirt. The mini bucket comes with a variety of Gold from flakes, pickers, nuggets to fine gold. These buckets do contain heavies and some chunkier rock, they do give you a more authentic gold panning experience as they will require sieving and it will take time to get through all the material and to recover your gold. Currently we have 1 option available -

1. 2 liters containing a guaranteed minimum of 7g of gold.

We are looking to add more bucket options in the future but as with our paydirt bags we do offer the option of adding additional gold to your bucket, this can be selected when adding your Mini Bucket to your cart.
