considering ordering one of these and interested in opinions. whilst I'm not a huge fan of drop riffles they can be swapped out if necessary. sorry i cant work out how to post link. just google crux highbanker. they appear to be quite unique but the lightweight is the big attraction. cheers

i have tried every mat except goldhog (which im very curious about) and haven't used sheepskin but the vortex mini catches stuff i cant see. it will catch most stuff 100 mesh plus unclassified but im going 4.5 mm (cause that's what i have) and getting dust. very keen on opinions on classifying...

after four wet summers the water is finally dropped enough to access areas I've been itching to test go back to an old spot and get into what was way too fast to dig and bam second pan 150 specks. rare here! go out next morning with kid couple of hours. now the younger one is keen as also. will...

nearly had a heart attack when i saw it in the pan. chunky bits are super rare here. will be going back with a big sluice and the sdc

first time out for months, bless the early spring. water still high and a bit limiting but have been saving this bank for a high water moment. was a real surprise how well i did after cleaning up at home with a coldie. hope its a good sign for the months ahead, but ive probably peaked early

Hi gang. I'm a gun sluicer and panner but age is catching me and I'm thinking of buying a detector to stop myself from bucket sieving for hours and risking my dodgy back, I'm sure I'm not alone with this issue. But.. I got real bad tiniitus, basically I've flogged my body as a glorified...

The paystreaks in my local river are rare and whilst not rich, sluicing them temporarily feeds my gold addiction. And occasionally I find a beauty. I do heaps of sampling and find the deposits in unlikely parts of the stream, I suspect that the local river has been hammered since it's been...

Hi everyone After reprocessing some tailings it's obvious my croc gator is loosing a bunch of fine flat gold which sux. I've put a punch plate over the grizzly which has helped quite a bit but I'm still unsatisfied. So I've ordered a gold cube dream mat (just under a foot length and width) to...

Hi gang Love the forum. Lots of really useful information and friendly prospectors. I live in the upper ovens valley which once was full of gold but was very heavily worked by dredges. There's plenty of flood gold but having prospected the creeks a fair bit I've done pretty poorly but love the...

Hi guys I've been trying to buy a fluid bed sluice but it appears they are hard to come by. Being patriotic I'd prefer a croc but am open to ideas. The grizzlys available on USA eBay appear very small and I am blessed with good water flow so would prefer something larger. There are a couple of...
