If Gold is in the trash, it's still gold

In the past, I didn't know what that meant, but it turned out that it was an idiom intended to judge someone that he was indeed a very good person from the inside out.
Now this phrase reminds me of when I was looking for gold in a survey job in the wilderness. When panning for gold in the alluvial flood plain, a lot of mud, muddy and dirty. It seems hesitant to do a canned test there, but my co-workers continue to insist on trying the test first.
Finally, after trying to pan it several times there was no result, only scree, mud dirt mixed with rotten roots and rotten leaves. So it was continued until one day they got a zone called "pay dirt" and it was not a play surprise, the result was that once a pan of dozens of gold was visible to the eye.
In terms of visible gold grain or stone, it means coarser grain and has a balance equivalent to 10 grains = 1 gram. So if you just pan in a dirty location you get a dozen coarse grains, about two grams, plus the fine gold that is taken with the pan. So that there is a total of 2.5 grams per pan.
To my knowledge, I have made a guideline based on my experience that if you can pan more than 10 grains, then the area or point is good for alluvial management.
The activity that day was a real surprise, in a place that did not appear to be a sufficient source of potential, it turned out to be quite content after several times panning. This is what reminds me of the phrase "if gold is in a muddy, muddy place, it's still gold", and it was true that day. Alhamdulillah.
Furthermore, this location becomes a guideline for further exploration, upstream of the river, even though it is now a floodplain and has become a garden for local residents.
