    Yes, blue bowl might work perfectly for that. I still do use just pan and that get tiresome when processing larger quantities but as I work through that sight of gold bonding wires and dust accumulated on bottom is some reward.
    Is that you Gill?

    Yes Pat it is I, yes it is as I stated in the begining on the gold forum mining e-waste chips and IC's is no different from mining the earth you have to liberate your precious metals in order to reclaim them.

    In nature glaciers did the dirty work, gravity and running water forced the gold to accumulate, Man in his wisdom copies mother nature.

    Nice to meet old friends. I mentioned that in GRF already that you were the first person who inspired me in my experiments, I still remember how I got to that "this may work I have to try it" feeling seeing your post and pictures.

    patnor1011 here's a link to an E-Tower, half way down the page you can see it in action. This bit of kit would be easy to make but it is also sold under Quick Gold separator for $60.00. http://www.coloradoprospector.com/fo...?showtopic=470

    The round screen is the most important part as it diffuseness the water stream advancing to the top of the column, with the right flow of water you can keep even the lightest particles in suspension using the siphon to remove the upper most.

    I think that I would add a surfactant to keep the floaters to a minimum.

    Below are some pictures of an E-Tower.

    Wow friend, that is some cool unit right there. Can't say that I've seen anything like it in all of the prospecting research I've done on the web. Thanx 4 sharing that. A light just came on over here. ") lb
