Good morning folks,

I recently purchased a USA Prospectors miller table and have been running some gold ore that I had crushed up. Was hoping it would work well to catch all the gold as I am running sub 50 mesh through this. But it seems I am loosing a very large amount of flakes over the edge. I've read that miller tables can be great for flat gold, like stuff from rivers, but they are not too great on gold from hard-rock. Does anyone use something in particular to collect the fine gold from their crushed hard-rock ore? I don't have the money for a shaker table, but am willing to invest in something like a blue bowl or gold cube if you have had good luck with those. Not sure if I should be posting this in hard rock mining, I know this section gets a lot more eyes. I will keep this miller table to run the black sands I have from the river, but I don't think this is going to work out for me on the crushed ore. Any and all thoughts and comments are appreciated!
