Its taken a bit and winter has made it a pain but we have been able to finally run gold ore samples for customers as well as ourselves.

If your local to the Colorado area and want to get some ore tested to be feasible. I am able to do small bathes.

This is good for tailing clean up.
New discoveries etc.

I am the Representative for Mt Baker and the machines they make for this area. should you need one and want to check it out.

For anyone who has done gold prospecting in rivers and streams as soon as you see this it is going to change your world view on where the gold is!

having the right equipment is key. I just got something industrial and wow what a difference. it makes the difference between a hobby and a living.

I just use this thing to crush up the last several years of melting crucibles and got back some 7 oz of gold and 120 of silver...just that paid for half the system.

now that I can run a ton per hour I can work on getting my 1.5 ozt rock out of the ground and run to yield some profits..

even tailings are wroth processing with this thing if they have .10 opt.

I plan on having more videos up as soon as I get them made. this is so cool.

Can you post a pic showing the difference between a hard rock dore button and a button from jewelry scrap?

I think the color differences are usually pretty interesting.

I really like the set up you have. What is approx. cost for such a set up?

Awesome setup, feeding straight from crusher to table. I am also impressed with wet crushing, much less dust & mess. How fine is the crusher output in micron or mesh terms?

PS can you email me whatever promotional info you have on your ore testing service? I want to share with some other CO guys who aren't on tnet but who are active miners. [email protected]

20,000 dollar machine and an ounce a day would pay. Now that is an awesome investment. I'll bring the dump and we can just set up a conveyor. Heehehe

Great hard-rock setup! Thanks for the video and for the shots of the gold you recovered.

Nicely done.

All the best,
