The Gold Claimer Concentrator is self contained, and with its 2-8 yd/hr capacity, it is ideal for testing gold
values or for small production operations.  It’s performance is unequalled to any in its field.  The unique
water supply and reclamation unit allows operation where water is not available.   

Efficiency is a key ingredient!  The hopper has an adjustable water valve to slurry the material prior to
entering the trommel.  Lifters tumble the material as it enters the trommel to break it up.  A spray bar with its
own adjustable water valve goes the length of the trommel.  Next, the material approaches the 3/8” holes
where anything under 3/8” gets washed down onto the oscillating sluice, and larger material works its way to
the end of the trommel.  A nugget trap will catch any heavies and the lighter material will go out the tail cone
to the rock chute and discard tray.  The oscillating sluice has settings for stationary, short, & long strokes
and is capable of 1-15 pulses per minute.  The removable sluice has artificial turf, riffles mounted on
expanded metal & 4 toggles to secure it into place.  Any light material that gets washed off the sluice goes
into the dewatering screw.

The dewatering screw is the most efficient way to remove solids from water and recirculate the water.  The
auger is raised from the bottom which allows for a black sand trap & a second recovery for the gold in case
too much water flows over the sluice.  The dewatering screw has an adjustable water valve located on the
bottom to help the heavy material settle & lighter material to auger out.  Waste material will auger out &
discard at the end of the Gold Claimer.

Using the dewatering screw is the most efficient way to remove solids from the water & recirculate it.  The
auger is raised from the bottom allowing the black sands to trap & a second recovery for gold in case of too
much water over the sluice.  The adjustable water valve located on the bottom helps the heavy material too
settle & lighter material to auger out.  Waste material augers out and discards at the end of the Gold
Claimer.  When plenty of water is available & you don’t need to recirculate the water, remove the dewatering
screw by removing 2 bolts and the drive shaft.  The only change needed is to remove the intake hose off
the pump and place a longer hose with a foot valve in your water source.

The unique design of the Gold Claimer makes the clean up process easy!  At the end of the day (or sooner
if needed), disengage the clutch or shut off motor.  At the hopper end of the unit, slide the sluice out of its
cradle by the handle.  Put it over a tub, lift the 4 toggles & slide the riffles & artificial turf out to be washed.  
Reinstall the carpet and riffles, slide the unit back into the sluice cradle & start the operation once again.  
Another option is to have a second complete sluice ready.

The Gold Claimer recirculates approximately 100 gallons of water during a 10 hour day.  You may need to
add a little water due to evaporation and the wetness of the waste material.  Drain plugs are in both the
water tank and the dewatering screw.

The simplicity of the Gold Claimer makes it the leader in the field of small portable placer equipment.  
Industrially built, it is easy to maintain & powered by either an electric or gasoline engine.  Either one uses
the same motor mount which is easily removable by removing the snap pin & sliding out the motor mount.  It
was designed that way so you can easily take it with you at the end of the day to cut down on theft.  One
motor runs both the gear reducer & water pump using a B-Width belt.  The trommel is a positive chain drive.

The Gold Claimer is uniquely designed for its versatility!  The trommel itself can act like a rod mill by placing
two 30" 1 1/4 rod.  It will help break up clay if that is a problem where you are operating.  You can also
double your capacity by placing two Gold Claimers hopper to hopper and adding a "splitter", then feeding
both units with our
12' Feed Conveyor.
