Alluvial Gold Prospecting - How to Set Up a River Sluice - Aussie Bloke Prospector
Alluvial Gold Prospecting - How to Setup a River Sluice - Aussie Bloke Prospector
In this video I present a walk-through, talk-through demonstration on how I achieve optimum performance from my River Sluice.
From Diverting and Lifting the water, right through to Setting up, testing and adjusting the box to get it running beautifully.
I touch on Specific Gravity & Displacement and how Volume (or Depth of Water), Speed of Water and the Angle of Sluice box directly effect how well it works.
Through this tutorial I also share a few tricks I use to achieve optimum performance.
I mention how to really know if your box is at optimum by observing the first 2 riffles, and some common mistakes as well as some things to avoid.
Time spent setting your Sluice Box correctly is TIME WELL SPENT.

Thx bro. I'm running my river sluice this weekend and will put this info to use.
Thanks so much, great stuff! Just looking at buying my first sluice and the info you gave has changed everything. Now I dunno what to buy😳…get the feeling i could nail Grandma’s old coat to a few roof batons and I’ll do just fine if I throw on a rock to hold her down! (She’d have loved the humour of that btw)! Looking fwd to more of your vids. Cheers. Subscribed & shared.

I have a 4' sluice and it's driving me insane. How much drop per foot should I have?
@AussieBlokeProspector
4 жыл бұрын
Anagram Confirmed the ‘drop’ as you call it, is referred to as the ‘fall’ and is generally considered to be 1:12, that is to say ... for every 12 inches in length there is a drop of 1 inch... however the optimum ‘fall’ is ALWAYS relative to the speed and depth of water as this video explains... it is all about balancing the ‘3’... it should be noted also that the height and spacing of the riffles will determine where that balance is found. Hope that helps. Regards Aussie.
