Best brands to separate gold from concentrate by machine?

[Fossil4Life]

Hi all! Quick question: When dealing with gold bearing concentrate, what are the best brands to look for when you want to separate gold from material mechanically/by machine?

I prefer the Blue Bowl as long as you have the skills to feet it slowly...Here is a quick tool..
HOW TO BUILD A HENRY HENRY "POOP" TUBE

Heres How You Do It

Go to your local Home Depot or Lowes
Purchase these items.

• 1, 1x3"x 8' pine board.
• 1, 8' length or 4"dia corrugated plastice flexible drain pipe "not perforated".
• 1, small pack of flat head wood screws #10 in size.

Now go to Walmart into the Sporting goods dept and purchase a 12vlt boat bilge pump 750 model.
You now have all of the ingredients to build your Henry "Poop" Tube.
NOW FOR THE ASSEMBLY...

• Cut the 8' 1x3" pine board in half into 2, 4' peices. Use one peice save the other.
• Cut the 8' length of corrugated drain pipe into 2, 4' peices. Save one use the other.
• Now take the 4' of drain pipe you are using and split in to 2 halves, by splitting it length wise.
• Take one of the halves of the drain pipe and screw it onto the 1x3"x4' pine board.
• Put the screws into the bottom of the corrugated riffles, 1 every 6" will do nicely.
• Now take the other split half and set it on top of the one you screwed down onto the pine board and snap it in place.

NOW YOU HAVE BUILT A BASIC HENRY "POOP" TUBE...

• You can now use it in a creek or stream to work out your concentrates and fine flour Gold.
• You can add on the bilge pump with a stop valve and some garden hose and by using a
  couple of 5 gallon buckets you can recycle your water and use the Henry Poop Tube at home.

IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER...

• Remember to set up the elevation from top to bottom at 1" [one inch] per/linear foot of Henry "Poop" Tube.
• NOW...Adjust your water flow so the tube doesn't load up with blondes or blows out all of the material leaving the riffles empty.
• Using a scoop from those dry soap detergent boxes is perfect to feed the tube.
• Load the tube 1 [one] scoop at a time allowing it to clear before loading again.
• Look for all of the Free Gold and Snuffer it out every chance you get.
• Remember to classify your cons down to #20 mesh for use in the Poop Tube.
• Larger than #20 mesh you can pan out easily with either a 14" pan or 10" finishing pan.

You now have one of the most DEPENDABLE TOOLS IN YOUR PROSPECTING SUPPLY BIN...
Total cost to build one is less than $30 and total time to assemble one is less than 2 hours

Nothing beats my Keene Super 3 in One pan

But seriously, how much material do you have? And what is the nature of your concentrate?

A lot of people like the Blue Bowl for fine gold recovery. Or a Miller table. There are spiral wheel concentrators etc...

Or you could just send it to me and I'll sort it out.

Thank you for the info! After doing some preliminary research, I am leaning towards using a blue bowl system.

id check into the Miller Table. it is my main final cleanup tool! itll get the gold you miss using anything else if you don't have a Blue Bowl!

The Lil gold trap...it recovers down to 600 fine gold. Look it up online, and get the mark II, which is better and costs less!! LiL' Gold Trap Options

As Russau has said, Miller Table all the way. I have built both the blue bowl system and a Miller Table system. The Miller Table wins hands down in speed and very easy to use. Watch my videos. The Miller table you slow the water down and lower the angle and you will capture all the fine gold you want.

Here is a link to Black Magic system. My system is based on their design except I built a recovery vial into the bottom on my table. Watch the video until the end so you see how I capture the gold in my video above...
