Description

Prospecting Sluice,

 

I have recently discovered that there are rivers and streams close to where I live containing gold and that there are hobby gold panners that regularly find gold in them, 

 

Some of the big guys with massive following on social media have these prospecting sluices that are quite expensive to buy,

 

We have been working with one of these more successful prospectors @Scottishgoldhunter on Tiktok to develop this cheap to make but effective Sluice that breaks down and fits inside a rucksack for the hike in to those hard to reach but less explored hotspots!

 

He is currently testing it out in the field and I'll add the footage of it catching gold as soon as it comes in.

 

Until then have a crack at prospecting yourself with a this handy 

 

You will need some M6x20mm cap screws, M6 Wingnuts and some washers. The dovelock cleats slide in from under the 2 sections to be joined, when fully home use a washer and m6 capscrew from the inside and wingnut outside to secure tight. With practice this can be done rapid in the field
