[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 127043, member: 1695"] Big plans JBL, wishing you the best of luck with your adventures, here's a pic to whet your appetite (in QLD too). It's an old cassiterite trommel with a jig and knudson bowl, not a bad setup, but pain in the backside when all the trommel spray holes fill up with fish. A Gemini 1000 concentrating table was used for final cleanup before heading for the furnace. The biggest cost trying to keep this setup going was maintenance and having spares on hand, one of the 20 tonne excavators died only after a short while requiring a new engine which was a killer. This was only a sampling plant, and not the main production trommel plant.
