  • Patent number: 5927509
    Abstract: A self-contained gold separation kit adapted for easy carrying using a shoulder strap uses a single-spring rocker assembly for agitation of stream bed materials for separation of gold. The main kit elements include a sluice box, material tower and collector tray that are contained for carrying within a box, and in use those elements are then rotatably mounted above the carrying box. That box also serves to contain a quantity of water to be used repeatedly in washing out the bed materials, hence the device can be used at a distance away from stream bed. The weight of that water also serves to prevent the device as a whole both from moving about while being rocked and from tipping over. A dipper is included for dipping water over the bed materials, and also a gold pan for the final separation of the gold and a collector tray for collecting tailings from the gold separation.
