[QUOTE="Goldfreak, post: 665467, member: 10082"] Before the invention of the dry blower people used to sometimes "winnnow" for gold in a similar way they still do in many parts of the world for grain. My question is why a dry blower is more efficient ? Could winnowing be refined to match the dry blower ? ( I am thinking of dropping from a greater height, controlling cross air flow, particle size etc etc ) please give me your thoughts and save me making some likely useless contraption.
