Ideas for recovering flour gold?

[Wannabegoldminers]

I have a homemade sluice box but where I prospect, there is a lot of flour gold and I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to make a flour gold recoverer?

if you know where the gold is your hardest part is over. Start sluicing then pan the concentrates!!!

You could always bake the black sands before panning! or just throw it all in crucible and fire it up with anhydrous borax mix

Hi wannabe,
I use a blue bowl to get the flour gold. Go to Prospectorchannel.com and go to programs and watch the episode about the blue bowl. It should help you decide what you want to do.


Good Luck!

All this this gold was caught using a Keene Super Concentrator. Check the super super fines that were caught.

It's up to u, everyone is different. Personally, I have yet to see any concentrator work this well. IMO. Good luck.

Or if u r cheap like me:
1. Classify your material down with a used gold metal coffee filter
2. Put a tablespoon or two of this material in a smooth bottom pan, over at one side... with some water and jet dry of course
3. Rap on the opposite side of the pan and watch the fine gold walk right out of the material

Kevin that's an awesome tip, I'll have to try that.
