Hard rock miners need them because refiners have rock crushers to separate the gold from the stone that encases them.
Alluvial/placer gold is already separated. Alluvial gold is already pure.
Most of the gold ever recovered came out of rivers and I have personally collected gold directly from river gravel.
90 percent of the labor for placer gold is acquiring the concentrate which is why SGCP is investing in commercial dredges.
In a gold rich region like SL anyone could go out with a gold pan and probably make a living. To be a viable commercial enterprise just requires automation to speed up the process.
I want to know about our wash plants too. Spiral systems like Keene Engineering sells are able to recover the tiniest flour gold right on site. They just need electricity. Sort of like a centrifuge that spins the gold to the edge.
It can take an hour to process twenty pounds of concentrate and SGCP has tens of thousands.
I hope Doug and John commit to new wash plants since what we have can't keep up with the dredge production.
