Description
Name: flat chute, gold sluice with carpet,sluice box carpet
Feeding force: 10mm
Weight: 100-600kg
Production capacity: 3-30t / h
Application site: gold sluice with carpet is commonly used in placer gold beneficiation, and is commonly used along with trommel screens to recover gold directly.
Emphasizing functionality and industry
A sluice box is a key component of closed-circuit gold panning equipment. It’s a specialized tool within the mining industry designed to capture gold particles from placer deposits using the force of flowing water.
Working Principle of Chute Gold Panning
Chute gold panning leverages the density difference between gold and sand. As the mineral slurry flows through the chute, gold particles, with their higher specific gravity, concentrate in the bottom layer. Conversely, lighter sand particles are carried away by the water current.
Traditional chute gold panning often employs gold panning felt, but its efficiency is limited to around 30% due to clogging and hardening issues. To address these limitations, our chute incorporates a targeted compression mechanism. A rubber bottom plate applies mechanical pressure on the sediment layer, significantly enhancing gold recovery rates to over 95%.
Advantages of Gold Sluice Carpets
Gold sluice carpets offer several advantages that make them a popular choice for small-scale gold mining operations:
- Cost-Effective: Gold sluice carpets are significantly more affordable than other gold separation equipment, making them an excellent option for those with limited budgets.
- Easy to Set Up and Transport: These carpets are simple to install, disassemble, and transport, providing flexibility for miners operating in various locations.
- High Processing Capacity: Sluice carpets can handle a large volume of material, and custom specifications can be tailored to meet individual customer needs.
- No Electricity Required: Eliminating the need for electricity reduces operational costs and allows for use in remote areas.
- Low Maintenance: Regular maintenance is minimal and primarily involves replacing the sluice box carpet, which is both affordable and long-lasting.

What is a Sluice Box Carpet?
A sluice box carpet, often referred to as a gold panning blanket, gold sticky cloth, or gold mat, is a crucial tool in gold recovery. Typically cut to match the width of a sluice box and approximately four meters in length, these carpets are essential for capturing gold particles.
How to Use a Sluice Box Carpet:
- Placement: Lay the carpet within the sluice box.
- Gold Separation: As water flows through the sluice, the carpet traps gold particles while allowing other materials to pass through.
- Cleaning: Regularly remove accumulated sand and debris by shaking the carpet. For deeper cleaning, rinse with water.
- Gold Extraction: After significant use, process the carpet’s contents on a gold dressing shaking table to separate gold from other materials.
Types of Sluice Box Carpets:
Various types of sluice box carpets exist, with different textures and materials designed to optimize gold capture. Common names include gold felt, sluice carpet, sticky gold grass, and gold rush. The choice of carpet depends on factors such as the type of gold being recovered and the specific mining conditions.
