What size is the majority of your gold?

[nickmarch]

Hello All!

I think I have come up with my best idea yet for gold concentration. Before I make it I am trying to figure out what size to make the classifier.

What size is the majority of your gold? What mesh or micron size?

What size would you call a picker? 1/8"? 1/4"?

What I'm getting at is that I want the rare mesh size nugget/picker/can be detected with a detector to not enter the system. If It can be detected with a decent metal detector I don't want it to enter the system.


You will understand when you see it! Very inexpensive, easy to make, light, easy to transport, can be dredged and/or shoveled into, and will lose little to no gold. Water can also be recirculated for use where there is no water.

Takoda That is some real nice gold! I may have to test my stuff at your spot!

I did find an answer to my question at...

Steve's Guide to Metal Detecting for Gold Nuggets

They claim that a half a grain can be detected at a depth of 1 1/2" I'll have to melt a half grain to get an idea of what size it is.

Thanks for the Vid & pics!

The crush cons in the screen are not part of the blue bowl stuff .
I'm still not through with this batch of crush .

My girlfriend just got home and I pointed to this pic on my screen and said "look at this guys gold" to which she replied "gold?, I thought that was an artists interpretive picture of the world".

Nice pics and gold. I'm fascinated

What equipment do you use? Sluice? High Banker? Dredge? Pan? Detector?

Hey Tacoda,

I know no one wants to give up specific locations but do you mind giving general location (state and county) where you were are getting the quarz and how did you crush? Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Garry
