PostPosted: Dec 03, 2018 09:16    Post subject: Panning the Czech Garnet in the Czech Republic  

I'm sending greetings from the Czech Republic.
If someone is interested in panning (Czech garnet) pyrope in the Czech Basin here is a video from nature ...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aWZ5n0vTJ0

Video is with Czech titles, but I think this video doesn't need commentary.

Nice video with lovely background music. I know of a remote riverbed in Namibia (mostly dry) where there are thousands of small red garnets. Someday I would like to get permission to explore the area.

Thank you friend.
If you have the opportunity, it is besides the pleasure of red stones and a wonderful relaxation in nature.
We also have enough localities in the form of smaller climbers, which were dry during summer, so we will see next year, depending on how much snow and water during spring, maybe next year will be better with water for panning on other streams with garnets...

You can save a LOT of time by real panning. Many Czech areas with abundant peridotites, eclogites, granulites and gneisses contain high amount of garnet in stream sediments.

Recently, localities like Vestřev became very popular because of some infamous collecting videos = irritated local landowners and officials. So please respect landowners and nature, otherwise trouble will follow...

By reading this, I assume that you need a permit to pan garnets on all state land in Czech and that people trespass on private properties to pan. Are permits so expensive and hard to obtain that people are tempted to trespass or are the best garnets on private properties and people cannot get permission?

Hallo here...

To Basti : Zdravím Tě krajane :-) Svět je malý, že... v Čr je problém, když prozradíš lokalitu, příští rok bude totálně vydrancovaná...

As for small panning, it is not a problem in Czech. No need for authorization. Most watercourses are not private but state-owned. If a water pump and more complicated tools were used than a pan, it would already be understood by the law as mining, and that would be a problem. The problem in the Czech Republic is that someone in the video will reveal the location of the find. Many people will be mining so long that the habitat will be lost. And not only that, people are often reckless to nature and, under the vision of profits, will change to be unnoticed by simply panning the landscape. Such as locales of moldavites, but that's another story ...

Thank you for that explanation Stoner.
