[QUOTE="nucopia, post: 230258, member: 5588"] My wife and I are looking at getting a river sluice , just not sure what we need , how they work i.e how to use one etc This thread is helping to answer a few questions we have , thanks guys. We have a high banker but at Nundle and Ophir they are not welcome. As both places have good water flow the next best option is to use a river sluice. We are getting better at panning but as many here have said a sluice can speed up the process some what. My question is once the sluce is set up , how do most sluice uses process the dirt to get it ready to feed into the sluice ? Im thinking first find the payable dirt by digging and a test pan, then start shoveling that dirt through a classifier screen into a bucket. How do others do it ? thanks guys , as always we really appreciate how every one on the PA is helpful in passing on knowledge Cheers ;) [/QUOTE]
