Sluice box used to recover the tailings from gold centrifugal concentrator



Sluice box is used to recover the tailings from centrifugal concentrator, to catch the gold from the mixed slurry.

The sluice box is put on the ground, with a angle of 10-15 degree. The end of feeding is on higher level than the outlet end. When the mine slurry flush rush down from the centrifuge tailing outlet, with the force of water flushing and gravity, only the heavy density particles with stay in the sluice box, like gold and some other metal, the sand, soil will flushing away to the tailing.


Then you take out the carpet of sluice box; wash the gold sand from the carpet in a big basin or other container, save the gold sand after you washed. Then put the gold sand into shaking table, shaking table will make further concentration of the gold. The sluice box carpet should wash around every 5-6 hours.
