[QUOTE="Devonian, post: 179197, member: 5866"] I'm not sure if this idea has been posted before and/or is common knowledge. Most of us know of the pain of trying to break up alluvial clay. I've tried just about everything, the best was a tumbler with high pressure water but it costs money to run and if there's no gold at the end of the day your going backwards and out of pocket. So I went to Bunnings and bought a drill $60 and paint mixer $14. As I get down to the alluvial muds I fill the buckets with 1/3 of wash dirt and 1/3 water. Then simply wiz it all with the mixer for about a minute before putting it through my 12 volt solar concentrator. Works like magic!
