We are proud to offer a product that actually does what it is intended to do: CATCH AND RETAIN GOLD. Not only that, but it does it in a way that is simple to set up and easy to use.
In designing the CC690 we steered clear of duplicating existing equipment. Nor did we place a stream sluice on a stand and brand it a "power sluice". Rather, AME designed the CC690 to be a power sluice from the ground up. Specifically, great weight in our design was given to Yukon placer gold recovery studies done by researchers in the 1980's and 1990's. These researchers conducted tests of existing placer gold recovery operations to determine which equipment designs were most efficient in retaining gold of all sizes. Their tests were done using irradiated gold particles to enable tracking of each gold piece being captured, or not, by the recovery equipment. We are confident that by basing our design around such quantitative studies, as opposed to guesswork or tradition, we will aid the small scale miner in extracting the greatest percentage of gold possible from the gravels he feeds into the CC690.
