My father leaves for Africa in a couple of weeks. He will run 2 8 in. dredges and they are building a 10 in. dredge for their operations this spring. One setup will do gold and the other will be juigged to do diamonds. They will also have several trommels with dublex jigs to process gravel. Check out Savana engineering and precision dredge sites. We bought the Precision dredge company and are building them again. Ole Grubstake can be reached at 209-966-7898 for info on the dredges. Dad and his partners are tired of dealing with the crap here in California, so it's off to Africa with them.

looks like Africa is the future for mining with a suction dredge. good luck to the guys with the huevos to do it, like hoser I have 2 many years under my belt to try out Africa.

those crocs don´t look to bad until you are on the same level with them, I have a 9 footer about 300 yards from my house. he lives in the estuary and is pretty tame. but when he starts climbing out of the river and comes over to see what kind of food you have or if you are food it scares the crap out of me. lost a dog a few years ago that turned into croc food.

Hi Kuger-Yes it's me Gerrison. Here's a pic my dad just sent me today of some diamonds he panned at their site. This was in about a cubic yard of gravel. One days panning. He can't wait to get the two 8 in. dredges going. And Hoser he says hi to you. Wyatt is at the Kimberly mine this next week setting up equipment he sold to them and then back to dad in Sierra Leone. Then they are home for the holidays and back first of the year pounding the gravel for gold and diamonds.
