[QUOTE="Silversurfer, post: 362346, member: 8367"] In my humble opinion anything 200- mesh or smaller is not commercially viable and the extraction process would be toooo lengthy and time consuming to process it.....unless you used some kind of leaching agent or amalgam ,but you will find most of the 'chemical' options are either dangerous or illegal. I'd recommend a blue bowl to extract the fines. You can see some pretty cheap copies on YouTube of how to make one. There's also a Miller table option...again you can YouTube it. I'd also recommend drying the cons out and then running a neodinium magnet over it to get all the black sands and other ferrous material out of it.....anyway,that's my 2 cents worth. Good luck.
