In Roblox Prospecting, your success in unearthing rare minerals from the deposit areas rests on your pan. These tools improve your overall Luck stat and possess passives that give a modifier or size boost. The Rusty Pan is given for free to all beginners in the game.

Besides that, you can purchase a variety of pans, from the Plastic Pan to the highly valuable Fossilized Pan, from specific locations in the in-game world.

This guide contains all the information about pans in Prospecting, including their locations, costs, passives, and stats.


All pans in Prospecting and their stats

Pans are a more important gear than shovels in Prospecting. This is because they provide Luck, Capacity, Shake Strength, Shake Speed, and boosts, whereas shovels only affect your Dig Strength, Dig Speed, and Toughness. While a higher Toughness lets you access more digsites, the stat is fruitless if you have a pan with low luck and capacity.

Here's what each stat entails in this game:

  • Luck: This stat affects your chances of finding rarer minerals. So, the higher a pan's Luck stat, the rarer the minerals you can find from digsites.
  • Capacity: This stat affects the number and size of minerals that a pan can hold.
  • Shake Strength: This stat affects the number of sediments your character removes with each shake of the pan.
  • Shake Speed: This stat affects how fast your character can remove sediments during the sifting process.

Apart from these stats, gamers must be considerate about the Modifier and Size Boosts provided by certain pans. A mineral with a modifier and a larger size sells for more cash.

As of this writing, the Fossilized Pan is the best in this mineral-collecting title. It has the highest Luck and Capacity compared to all the other pans, even surpassing that of the Dragonflame Pan. Additionally, unlike Dragonflame, it applies no debuffs, and instead, gives a whopping 50% Modifier Boost to the user.

As expected, the Fossilized Pan is the costliest in the game. You can purchase it from a secret area located in the underground section of Windswept Beach. Notably, the same area also contains the Fossilized Shovel, which is currently the best tool for players. Learn more about it in this guide.
