I have a Gold Cube. This is my primary material running machine. I have caught very fine gold. Some 70 mesh and bunches of -100.

Black sands that I catch in the GC, would these sands possibly contain in the matrix, micro gold or other heavies as to the BS that runs on out of the discharge. as the heavier material pushes out the lighter. Or is it just any weight of BS that is filling the low pressure spot in the mat? Just wandering about other TN thoughts. I am sending a sample off for info. but I am leaving the tiny gold in the sample, so I will not know the actual content either way. Just the gross. I may ask them if they have a microscope to check for me.

Thanks.

I would imagine that the BS caught in the goldcube might be a little heavier than the BS that gets discharged. Although it might be that the blacksand left over is just the stuff that didn't have time to work it's way down before you turned off the water. But yeah, if the BS has micro gold attached in theory it would be slightly heavier than identical sized blacksand with no gold attached. But the difference would be pretty minimal. Now if you run just straight blacksand through the cube the results might be more accurate. But if it's mixed in with the rest of your cons, then the blacksand thats been in the cube longest will have had more time to work it's way out of the cube. And did you mean you were sending the BS from the cube to be tested, or the BS that got discharged? I guess the best way to know for sure is to send two seperate samples.

I was wondering basically the same. How far down to pan my concentrates. Let's say there is two cups of 99% black sand when the blondes are mostly gone. I pan that down to say half a cup or 1/4 as much material. Would I want to save all the bs or some. In other words, what would be optimum.

Scaled up lets assume 20 gallons (4 buckets) vs one 5 gallon bucket a season. Would the gold recovery, be a lot different? I'm sure you'd lose some gold. The 4 buckets would have more total yield but not four times as much.
