Prospector  working  in Ghana

The Goldfield Prospector is a portable, heavy duty washplant for the recovery of alluvial gold. It is designed for professional sampling, feasibility studies, small-scale production and clean-up of larger processing plants. Gold recovery rates in the high 90% range are commonly achieved down to 150 mesh. The Prospector is powered by water pressure supplied by the use of a single pump.

Mirador Mining LTD.-- British Columbia

"We have bought several pieces of equipment from your company over the years and have always been extremely satisfied with their performance.     I have recently returned from Zimbabwe where we were using one of your 'Prospectors' for a sampling program on the Mukaradzi River. We ran over one hundred/100 kg samples and several metric tonne samples over a period of two weeks. Our mining was all by hand using local labour and operating conditions were fairly rigorous. Throughout the whole program the 'Prospector' performed flawlessly. After each sample run, one of the local Shona tribesmen would pan the tailings. No gold was ever found in the tailings. The Shona, who are all expert panners and alluvial miners, called it the 'magic machine'. It certainly was for us!"
