[QUOTE="Geo2, post: 168803, member: 4572"] A recirculating system is not hard to make, the problem is as Mudguts has noticed , keeping the water clean of sediments for prolonged period of time to effectively recover more gold. A filter around the pump would work for a short period of time and then it will plug up, Bilge pumps are not designed to pass large material e.g sediment or organic material like leaves and such. Probably better use several tubs in a siphon manner (one connects to the other from above water level). This may help keep the water clean enough to some degree before the need arises to change it again. Eventually you need a water surfactant like dish soup or another detergent to break water surface tension which helps in recovering fine gold particles. [/QUOTE]
