[QUOTE="Moneybox, post: 673494, member: 3960"] I've never used this Miners Moss type mat but I was fortunate to have purchased a 2m x 1m sheet of open backed miners moss from Bunnings but it must have been a run-out sale because I've not been able to find it since. I think it might be difficult to clean out the closed back variety. I use a 10"x36" Dream Mat in my sluice and I only ever see the gold in the top 200mm so I think it works very well. It would work better if I could run some rince aid in the water to break the surface tension but have frogs living in the tank so I can't use any chemicals. The dream mat cleans out with a simple splash in the tub that only takes a few seconds so I find it good value but of course that depends on how much use you get out of it. If you only use your sluice once in a while then a bit of clean-up time probably doesn't matter. [/QUOTE]
