New Tech! * Gold Drop Concentrator!
Review of the Gold Drop Concentrator by Sluice Goose. This fluid bed concentrator is designed to clean concentrates and return either clean gold or very easy to clean gold. Reducing the amount of time taken to clean large quantities of gold concentrates by at least 10 times. This does not replace gold panning, but it sure makes it a whole lot easier to get your gold from your black sand concentrates.

We were using this technology back in 1987 in Nova Scotia to process gold samples, eventually an entire lab full of fluidized gold separators. It is nice to see the tech repackaged for the small scale prospector.

Anyone else see Dan's smiley face and awesome attitude and think, ima just gonna hit like before even seeing the content. Awesome vid as usual Dan
My step dad invented something similar to this. He has a pecan picker upper he drags behind his lawnmower to pick up all the pecans. He has a leaf blower attatched to 5 sections of pvc pipe and 2 bins. 1 for the pecans to fall in and the other is for the debris like pine needles, pecans hulls, etc... to blow into.
WOW DAN. You did an awesome video on this. Your talents as a teacher really show so clearly.

I Love The Gold Drop! LOL Excellent video, thanks for popping this out so soon after just mentioning it in the last video lol. I was very excited when I got the notification!
Been looking forward to seeing you use this. It looks to be an extremely well designed and thought out piece of equipment. And of coarse well presented by you Dan.
It is always a joy to see what treasures the earth holds for us. Thank you Dan for showing us such wonderful blessings. I’ve seen some designs of gold concentrators on KZread and they keep getting better.
Awesome Video Dan, really enjoy watching, I've learnt so much from watching for the past 2 years. Much Aroha from New Zealand 🇳🇿
Dear Professor, you absolutely earned my subscription with this high-quality, informative video!
Another amazing video! Thanks for sharing your gold adventures with us! 😄😄😄
Super nice! Love all your videos! Thank you Dan Hurd for help Growing my knowledge of panning & prospecting !
I watched that Gold Mining show many years ago and was impressed with a vibration table they used at the end. The cool part about it was you could easily see the separation and if it was loosing gold you would see it right away. It was vey fast and handled a lot, but it likely cost a lot more too.
I love your videos Dan Hurd!!! This one wss great and I love when you're out looking as well of course... I might be a 'one legged' guy from Maine but I LOVE the adventure! Your channel helps satisfy that yearning I still get for exploration and adventure!! Please continue and I'll keep watching! Seriously, I hope God blesses you...
LOVE watching these process ❣️❣️❣️ it’s hard not to love since Garnet is my Absolute FAVE!!!!!!♥️
you earned my subscription a while back and keep earning it with every video.
Nice definitely fun Dan 😀 enjoyed watching the gold and Garnet's Drop!!!; )
I really like that invention! I have seen others use it incorrectly. And you nailed it! Great work Dan!
Great review Dan. Glad to see you are back at it after the surgery.
I’ve been following Pauly for a few years now, not sure why it took me so long to sub to your channel. Hope you’re recovering from the surgery well. Take care Dan.😊
What a cool machine Dan!! This video is very informative I may need to get one of these for my own mining concentrations Live the channel Keep the great content coming
Great video Dan! Very informative and Very entertaining. Tank you for taking the time to share this.😁
That gate valve is the same that we use in the RV industry. Take some petroleum jelly and put it on the blade inside it'll help lubricate the seals and keep them from dry rotting and leaking. A thin layer is all it needs.
Excellent review, DAN!!!!!
I really enjoyed you working & explaining your new ‘man toy’ & seeing it separate. It’s so clever & I’m a little bit in awe of those who invent these gadgets.
Dan, that machine is a beauty. Some fluid genius did a great job!
Great video Dan, outstanding description of a nice piece of equipment.
Loved this show. Love the garnets. Fun to watch.
Love it Dan👌🏻 Your content variety is amazing! I have learnt a lot from you😀⛏🏴
That's a pretty awesome little setup ! 👍 Thanks Dan keep up the awesome work ! Enjoyed the video. God Bless 🙏 you and your family 🙏🙏🙏
Great content. Make me wish I studied geology. Learnt so much from your channel. Keep it up man
Best explanation and tutoral of the Gold Drop I've seen yet, thanx for another great video Dan. It took me a few seconds to realize what was going on with your glasses at first, then I realized it's your 'round' light reflection...lol
Great video!! I could watch and listen to you run that unit for a longggg time!
Wow that gold drop is a really cool way to process your material definetly a gamee changeer thanks again dan for an awesome video on this
I’ve been waiting for this one!! Keep it up Dan!!
Me too bubble!😁 Been watching it all day! Definitely going to watch them all! Thanks Dan Hurd 👍🏻
just found you about 2 weeks ago, cool fun and entertaining videos, thanks from Georgia, Ron
Hell of a video. Excellent piece of equipment! 👍👍
The Gold Drop Concentrator seems to be a brilliant idea realised very well. - I think it will be incredibly useful in many different ways,liked that it could handle the garnets.
Great video Dan, thanks.
Awesome Dan you are the man. Thats a mean machine. I found it amusing you have bedrock in you workshop. Keep it comming. I love you videos
Nice topic, GOLD! Good job Dan 🤠
That bunch of garnets looks just like caviar!! Very cool stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Please do more of this machine milord, I could watch this running for hours. In fact, I'd love to see an unedited video of it just running for 1h+
A truly unique and very handy unit
interesting device, great invention. this saves a lot of work. I enjoyed it again. thank you.
It is really interesting to see this different concentration mechanics at work! The way I see it, the gold drop doesnt truly separate by weight but by "water drag" with a strong *negative* bias for flat shapes. A wave/shaker table works on friction and mass (with a strong *positive* bias for flat shapes), so it would do a stellar job of getting rid of the round black sand. In a perfect world, I can see a really fast 2 stage cleaning process where the gold drop cleans cons as an intermediate with the primary goal of getting rid of all the the lights + flat/oddshaped black sand. Then run those cons through a shaker/wave table (friction based/density concentration) and you should basically recover clean gold? Also, subbed.. I've been relying on the algorithm for all my Dan Hurd content so far, but I've commited now! :D
The garnets are flipping amazing
I’ve always been interested in these processes 💛
Such a neat machine. Thank you for another informative video. Cheers!
I've been waiting for this video! Thanks Dan!
I really like the set and forget idea of the sluice goose! I'll be keeping my eyes out for more videos processing easier material for sure
Thank you. I Hope that the gold drop is a good system for you and helps minimize the need to classify and clean up your cons thereby freeing up more time for you to be with family and to work on your other claims. Again thank you so much for your time that you share with all of us saw your KZread videos. Cheers
That's actually really cool man looks like a science project it's basically a science project
Awesome video this machine is a great new way of sluicing and way more inventive than another standard sluice
Swell job,continue making these great videos so we can continue our learning.David out
Nicely explained and agreed best for larger operations
It takes some time to get the hang of the separator. You did a fine job promoting for him. Good luck to both of you and your health
Great video.really enjoying this journey.
One of your best episodes
Awesome video. Very informative.
Smiling! Mr. Dan your looking well

Like my Lava Lamp, I want that Zen sound going as garnets fall out. Nice!
Very cool and informative video. Thanks
Dan I worked in several giant Advanced Waste Water Treatment Plants for 31 years. We had huge cyclone De gritters. When you run tons of grit swirled in plastic tubes and rotameter units the swirling organic materials cut through plastic pretty fast!! These Cyclone DE gritters work fantastic! But in future you will need either metal or thick glass for your profession. Something which can handle abrasive materials. (Paul from Oregon).
Absolutely incredible thanks for sharing
Awesome as always ✌✌and 100%HONEST ,so rare to see that .
Killin it one of the literal "best pieces of technology" ive ever seen
Unbelievable how well that works wow, excellent video.
The new gold nectar collector pretty awesome Dan ,pretty awesome
Wow work great this new machinery, 👏
I think this sort of contraption works much better with tighter classification. Instead of running -1/16 and having a hard time dropping the fine gold taking advantage of the 3:1 gold to black and using a 2:1 ratio a 1/16 to 1/32 class vs a - 1/32 would allow it to pretty much deliver clean gold.
Oh ya I saw this thing on klesh's channel too. Awesome rig.
That is quite a machine! I’m very impressed.
That's a really neat piece of equipment, I remember the home made fluid bed separator thought that's what this was at first. Glad to hear we'll seeing more from the Trout creek site in the foreseeable future. Now I wonder if putting the tailings through the system again would get the rest out or if they would work well through one of the other setups like the blue bowl or gold wheel.
I was going crazy, because I thought that you had already done a video on this. But then I remembered it was Klesh.

I wonder I we can get one to process people. You know, separate the gold from the waste. LOL Fantastice bit of kit, and nicely demonstrated. Nice one Dan.
Pretty cool product and nice review/guide of how to use it. I'm curious though, it made me think if similar or better results could be achieved for separating gold from heavies, by increasing water viscosity enough via some kind of agent which can be fine-tuned to only allow particles of a minimum specific gravity (more or less) to fall through? Perhaps use a water circulation method to initially liquify and discard the bulk of the very light particles, and then have it fed into the next phase where the heavier particles are filtered via high viscosity fluids.
Thank you for explaining how it works.

That was freeking awesome Dan! reminds me of when i put a vacuum former together. I cant wait to see a little tornado of gold! =D
Nice machine. I'm not a huge fan of the gold wheel, but I think the gold wheel would be the perfect thing to clean the cons from the gold drop.
That was a fun lesson, thanks man!
you sir just earnt my subscription. great information and great video, i like ur styly. just starting out lookimg at gold processing since i found out i have a big deposit 5 min walk from my house on a beach
Thank you I enjoyed this video interesting how that works thank you for showing us all
