Portable Gold Sluice Box – High Recovery Alluvial Gold Mining Equipment
1. Product Introduction
Our gold sluice box is a professional gravity separation device designed for alluvial gold, river sand gold, and small-scale placer gold mining. Made of high-strength lightweight aluminum alloy, this sluice box features durable construction, rust resistance, and stable performance in outdoor mining environments. It requires no power, only flowing water, to separate gold from sand, gravel, and sediment efficiently.
Equipped with high-density gold capture rubber mat and optimized riffle structure, the sluice box can capture fine gold, gold flakes, and coarse gold with a high recovery rate. Foldable and fully portable, it is the ideal mining equipment for prospectors, field exploration, small river mining, and mobile gold washing operations.
2. Core Advantages
- High Gold Recovery Rate：Optimized multi-stage riffle design creates stable water turbulence, locking fine gold particles effectively. The professional gold mat prevents tiny gold loss, ensuring a gold recovery rate up to 98% for alluvial gold.
- Lightweight & Portable：Adopts premium aluminum alloy material, lightweight but sturdy. Foldable structure saves storage space, easy to carry with a backpack for field mining, creek prospecting, and outdoor exploration.
- No Power & Eco-Friendly：Pure physical gravity separation, no mercury, no chemicals, no pollution. Only relies on water flow to complete gold sorting, safe and compliant for small mining operations.
- Durable & Anti-Rust：Integrated thickened aluminum plate structure, scratch-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and adaptable to harsh riverbed, muddy, and wet mining conditions with long service life.
- Easy Setup & Operation：Tool-free assembly, fast deployment in minutes. Adjustable angle design adapts to different water flow speeds and various ore particle sizes.
3. Working Principle
Gold sluice box works based on gravity specific gravity difference. When mixed sand and gravel flow through the sluice with water, the high-density gold sinks and is intercepted by the riffles and gold rubber mat. Light impurities such as sand, mud, and stones flow out with the water. After continuous washing and screening, high-purity gold concentrate is left inside the sluice box for collection and subsequent smelting.

6. FAQ
Q1: Does the sluice box need electricity or fuel?
A1: No power required. It works purely by water flow and gravity, very cost-effective for outdoor mining.
Q2: Can it capture fine gold?
A2: Yes. The upgraded deep-pile gold mat and professional riffle structure can capture most fine gold and gold flakes with minimal loss.
Q3: Is the sluice box easy to clean and reuse?
A3: Very easy. After each use, simply flush with clean water, fold and store, reusable for long-term mining work.
Q4: Can the sluice concentrate be smelted directly?
A4: Gold concentrate collected by sluice box still contains a small amount of impurities. It needs flux removing before smelting into pure gold ingots.
