Sluicing

Sluicing allows prospectors to process much more material than panning alone. A sluice box uses flowing water and riffles to trap gold particles while lighter material washes away.

• Setting up and positioning your sluice box
• Classifying and feeding material for best results
• Cleaning out the sluice and recovering fine gold
• Environmental considerations and responsible use

Sluicing is ideal for working productive gravel bars and can dramatically increase your gold recovery rate.
