[QUOTE="user 1769, post: 40513, member: 1769"] I have been doing a little sluicing in a creek that carries gold, in with a ton of cassiterite. I have an Angus McKirk AU Boss sluice. I'm finding the riffles filling up completely with cassiterite in no time... maybe after 10-liter bucket of wash is put through. What's the best way to deal with this? Cleaning it really often? It's just so tricky to get the balance and water flow just right that it seems like a very time-wasting way to go about it. Would you be worried about loosing gold when the bottom-most riffles start to fill up with cassiterite? Thanks! M [/QUOTE]
