Discover the secrets of expert prospectors
Finding precious gold can sometimes feel like looking for a needle in a haystack, even if you do have your metal detector. Taking out all the unnecessary elements to get these precious metals can take days, weeks, months, and even years. Typically, you would have to go with larger equipment which is less accessible and more expensive to use. But with a sluice box, you can eliminate some of these headaches and still find success.
Sluice Box For Gold Prospecting
The sluice box is an essential piece of equipment for the gold prospector. It is used to separate the lighter sands, and other materials from gold-bearing gravel panned or shaken through a series of riffles until the gold is captured.
Sluice Box Matting
Sluice box matting is essential not only in a basic sluice but also for high banker mat. Riffles do a great job of slowing down the gold, but some type of matting underneath the riffles is required to hold the gold and help prevent it from flowing out the bottom along with waste material.
The most common sluice box matting is a carpet-like material. This works well; however, newer types of gold sluice matting developed over the years have helped improve recovery rates.
