could you add a chamber in the main aggitation section to house steel ball bearings to help prevent gold flutter? Youd have to dial the size in and could use a mesh slightly smaller than the bearings to create the chamber (or maybe bars). Seems like it could act as a ball mill/pulverizer. Could it flatten out the iron to some degree at the same time? maybe a swappable section for the awnry gold.

ELUTRIATOR DESIGN MANUAL FOR COARSE HEAVY MINERAL RECOVERY FROM SLUICE BOX CONCENTRATE by Daniel E. Welsh, June 1991: dggs.alaska.gov/webpubs/mirl/report_no/text/mirl_n91.pdf I doubt it is "invention" as there is prior art.
It does not matter where the water comes from fresh water or salt water.. It's going to get dirty regardless of water type. I add a surfactant to the water to reduce water surface tension. Gold will float on water because it's hydrophobic, hates to get wet, with the help of water's surface tension.
Brine electrolysis creates ultra fine particles. Less than 5 micron gold and copper. The dirty electrolyte takes 12 to 18 hours to fully settle out. Such a system as yours might be adjustable to such fine particulates.
Let's face it, folks. The adoption of this fancy Goldrop thing is gonna be a bumpy ride. I wouldn't recommend it to those poor South American, African, or Asian miners. It's just not gonna work out. But hey, if you're an American, Canadian, or European prospector or if you happen to be a high-level miner in a third world country (go you!), then Goldrop might just be your golden ticket. Feel free to give it a shot and see if it changes your mining game. Good luck out there!
The Gemological Institute of America has granted Mercury Free Mining an additional $93,000 to work with the Alliance for Responsible Mining and send 3 Goldrops to Colombia starting in May for a comprehensive 6 month study to explore the feasiblity of Goldrop to replace mercury. We'll hold off judgement of Goldrop's performance until their results are published. with Goldrop being 98% efficient dropping flour gold into the jar and mercury being only 30% to 50% efficient amalgamating with gold, I think the Goldrop stands a pretty gold chance of outperforming mercury among artisanal miners.
@@sixfigureskibum It's not my opinion! The facts about Goldrop were produced by the University of Arizona mining lab comparing 4 other gold processes to Goldrop. You can read the facts, not opinions, in the Mercury Free Mining report on my website, www.sluicegooseindustries.com.
I'm still not convinced for the recovery of micro gold that is all I have here. Your 200 is still to big that would be easy to pan out as you did. Our gold is basically micro size we know is there but we actually don't see it, we put it on a liquid state with aqua regia then solidify back again as gold.
Send me a sample and let me process it through the Goldrop to see what it can do using your cons! I have a Goldrop owner in Las Vegas recovering 600 mesh gold from cons from a claim once owned by Howard Hughes now owned by his friend. It's oceanic gold deposited eons ago. He tells me the gold assays are high but not high enough to smelt and too small to recover using conventional devices.
I would like to see you pan 15 pounds of magnetite loaded -100 mesh black sand and recover 98% of the flour gold added in five minutes time, IMPOSSIBLE!!!! Here's a gold miner who would absolutely disagree with your statement, "useless invention", th-cam.com/video/eVYCgNg2yHM/w-d-xo.html.
good video John , really like the explanation...that unit really captures the ultra fines
Thanks Jeff, I appreciate your opinion coming from a geologist who knows a thing or 2 million about gold mining!
Great job John. Always a pleasure to watch the gold drop in action. Great machine.

Super gold recovery John! Keep up the great work. Warm wishes from Maine. 😊
Thanks Steve, I appreciate your opinion very much owning a Goldrop! Your gold recoveries with your Goldrop are amazing mining glacial till!

glad your getting the recognition .
Cape Disappointment? Not disappointing at all👍👍👍👍
I get the light material separating in the water the heavier gold droping, but how would it separate similar weight materials?
It does not separate matter of similar densities.
Can I purchase your magnetic sluice separately?

do you use distilled water in your machine?
It does not matter where the water comes from fresh water or salt water.. It's going to get dirty regardless of water type. I add a surfactant to the water to reduce water surface tension. Gold will float on water because it's hydrophobic, hates to get wet, with the help of water's surface tension.
Where can one buy this kind of unit? Do you have a bigger version for larger batches?
www.sluicegooseindustries.com. This is the only model currently available. Plans are being researched to scale the Goldrop system.

Any magnatism help?
none, all gravity!
Where can I buy one from? Uk
If you give me an address, I can get a DHL quote to send you a Goldrop. Email me at info@sluicegooseindustries.com
Great video sir. Blessings
Excellent... Well Done...
Great job!
Thank you sir my daughters great great grandchildren are greatful
Im in utah and would very much lije to possess one of your units
