[QUOTE="20x, post: 70823, member: 2569"] as far as volume of material I want to put through it goes I have to play this by ear, ive got to come up with a plan of attack for both in the creek and out in the clay. for the creek im thinking I might try de-rocking a section 1 day and sluicing the next but im worried about the gold dropping deeper as I do this?...for the clay im thinking of using an 800 watt 240v petrol generator to power a drill with a mixing paddle to soften and slurry the clay in buckets. Im not sure if the sprays of the highbanker will break it up enough. its pretty hard clay straight out of the ground and I really have to mash it hard by hand in a classifier ey. another way might be to fill buckets and soak them in water for how ever long it takes. sounds like a slow process but I will work things out 1 way or another. suggestions welcome? :cool: [/QUOTE]
