mudguts - not interested in making any coin off them - but if people let me know what size sieves thy are after i'll keep an eye out and claim them then let it be known on here that i have them available
Hello all, question for those using a blue bowl. What size sieve do you guys classify down with? And what size would you recommend for the smallest flour gold.
I start at 1/4 and work my way down to 30minus (what goes through 30mesh screen).
Anything 30plus goes through a finishing sluice, the fines go through a blue bowl.
I don't use one anymore as have way too much in fine gold cons and found blue bowl too time consuming.
Thanks to member here I have a desert fox wheel and now just need time from uni studies to run buckets of pre-screened fines.
Like elrodeo for the fine stuff when using my blue bowel i use 30, 50 and 100 mesh. Anything 30+ is either panned or run through a small finishing sluice.
so for anyone looking for sieves for either gold or gems just found the standard set with the two metal sieves that interlock unsure of the diameter and mesh sizes but they are everywhere. ...The cheapest I've found is around $90 anaconda currently have them for $59 also got the heavy duty metal Jerry cans for half price at $38...All ready for this weekends trip now
Hey fellas, I found a 14" litter tray that goes in the top of a rain water tank, made of plastic, obviously, from Stratco, cost........$6.00 Its a 1/4" aperture, so I guess its more of a classifier than a seive.......but cheap as.
sorry if i seem a little ignorant ..is anyone out there good at mesh sizes on sieves ..i have a keene sieve listed at 50 mesh however i need a much smaller mesh ...there is one on ebay 1/100 of an inch ..mot sure how that compares with what i have .i have been googling trying to compare sizes but no luck
cheers mick
