>>Hobby ? I'm not counting the recereational gold miners in the Western US, where production is pretty small, but rather the people in Brazil, Africa, Philistines, China, etc. who are doing this for income.

Sorry, I have no information on them, except the occasional National Geographic article...

I know a guy who was suction dredging a stream here in the Rockies... and doing reasonably well several summers... but he eventually sold the dredge.

Probably not easy work, down in a stream with a suction dredge and a wet suit.
