Newbie question

[Diesel.k]

What do you think is the best placer gold recovery method is? Besides dredging. I was thinking about buying a mini Highbanker, or building one. Is there an optimum sluice length and width? I found a recirculating Highbanker that is 6 inches wide an 30 inches long, but I’m not confident in such a small unit.

Any info would be greatly appreciated, I have a prospecting trip planned in a about 2 weeks or less.

Thanks guys/girls.

I don’t like asking simple questions but I’m green so here I go. My grandfather left me some prospecting equipment and I want to run it properly as well as identify it. Here are a couple pics. View attachment 1566643
