  • Fine Tuning Your GOLD BUDDY Drywasher. Drywashers Are an Excellent Tool to Recover Gold from Dry Material
    Drywasher Components Hopper: This is where you place the raw material. A classifier screen separates the material by size allow- ing the smaller material to enter the hopper and discarding the material that is too large to pass through the machine. Angle Adjustment: Changes the angle of the Recovery Box by adjusting the chain length. Flow Gate: This is a slide gate that controls the size of Recovery Box: This is the the opening at the bottom of lower box that is pressurized the hopper which regulates by the blower and collects how fast the material in the values in the riffle system. hopper enters the recovery box. Rear Leg: Frame: This is the steel structure that holds the components in place. For illustration purposes we are calling the leg where the fine material exits the drywasher the “Front Leg” and the leg where the larger material falls off the drywasher Front Leg: the “Rear Leg”. Setting up the Hopper / Frame Step 1: Your drywasher may have slightly different frame components than the illustration but the easiest way to as- semble a drywasher is usually to place the Hopper on the ground upside down. The upper part of the front and rear legs are at- tached to the hopper and need to be lifted so that the point where they intersect can be bolted together making the frame rigid. Step 2: Attach the bottom portions of the legs and secure them with the hardware provided. The bottom portions are differ- ent widths so you cannot get them mixed up. Step 3: Flip the assembled unit right side up and it should look like this.

  • A History of Tailings1
    A HISTORY OF MINERAL CONCENTRATION: A HISTORY OF TAILINGS1 by Timothy c. Richmond2 Abstract: The extraction of mineral values from the earth for beneficial use has been a human activity- since long before recorded history. Methodologies were little changed until the late 19th century. The nearly simultaneous developments of a method to produce steel of a uniform carbon content and the means to generate electrical power gave man the ability to process huge volumes of ores of ever decreasing purity. The tailings or waste products of mineral processing were traditionally discharged into adjacent streams, lakes, the sea or in piles on dry land. Their confinement apparently began in the early 20th century as a means for possible future mineral recovery, for the recycling of water in arid regions and/or in response to growing concerns for water pollution control. Additional Key Words: Mineral Beneficiation " ... for since Nature usually creates metals in an impure state, mixed with earth, stones, and solidified juices, it is necessary to separate most of these impurities from the ores as far as can be, and therefore I will now describe the methods by which the ores are sorted, broken with hammers, burnt, crushed with stamps, ground into powder, sifted, washed ..•.

It has occupied a criti- cal structural position in the western Cordillera since Mesozoic time. In the Cretaceous through early Tertiary, it stood just east and north of major fold and thrust belts and also marked the northern end of a broad, gently (~15o) north-plunging uplift (Kingman arch) that extended southeastward through much of central Arizona. Mesozoic and Paleozoic strata were stripped from the arch by northeast-flowing streams. Peraluminous 65 to 73 Ma granites were emplaced at depths of at least 10 km and exposed in the core of the arch by earliest Miocene time. Calc-alkaline magmatism swept northward through the northern Colorado River extensional corridor during early to middle Miocene time, beginning at ~22 Ma in the south and ~12 Ma in the north.

E. "H"Street Baker Grants Pass *************************** MINING IN BAKER COUNTY, 1861 to 1959* By Norman S. Wagner** Introduction Baker County mining began with the discovery of gold in 'Griffin Gulch in 1861. This and the develop­ ment which followed at Auburn represent gold mining at its historic best. Since 1861, much water has flowed down the sluice boxes with respect to mineral resource development within the county. As a result, the dis­ covery story is left for historians to tell, and the following paragraphs are devoted to the high points of the many kinds of mining endeavors that occurred in Baker County between 1861 and 1959. Hydraulic and sluicing operations All of the earlier placer operations have one thing in common with Griffin Gulch and Auburn. This is that they were carried out by means of ground sluicing and hydraul icking, using generous amounts of hand labor. These means of handl ing placer ground continued in exclusive use throughout the first forty years of Baker County mining history. It wasn't until the present century that the more familiar bucket-line dredges and other kinds of mechanized digging and washing plants made their appearance. Even yet the old methods are still employed on a small scale in circumstances where ground conditions permit. The Rye Valley placers on Dixie Creek represent a notable example of an early discovery made shortly after 1862.
