INE IMPORTANT ADVANCE
OVER OLD METHODS
I A new centrifugal gold separa
j tor, for the working of low-grade
gold sands, is coming into use
in the western states. Gravels
j from placer deposits, mined eith
| er by dredging of sluicing, or
I tailings, are being concentrated
j thus.
! Dredging machines are now in
| use by the Bjorn Placer Mining
Syndicate at McCoy. Eagle Coun
ty, Colo.; by J. H. Holmes. Jr., of
Denver; by Johnson & Bennett,
at Cisco, Grand County, Utah;
by J. V. Rawlings, of Green River,
Sweetwater County, Wyo., and by
Don F. Hinkley of Santa Ana,
| California.
| The first named company,
headed by Joseph Bjorn, has
j leased ground along the Colorado
river, and is constructing dredges,
'each of 1,000 ton daily capacity.
Several mine owners are also
putting tailings thru the new
concentrator.
The separator, which is bowl
shaped, is the invention of T. W.
Ainlay and C. E. Gish of Far
nam, Neb. The bowl is lined with
riffles at varying angles that fol
low the curvature. When rotated
the gold is retained in the un
dercut riffles, and the sand and
gravel are thrown out over the
edge.
In the complete dredging unit,
a scoop delivers gravel into a
hopper, whence it passes through
coarse and fine screens in se
quence and is then conveyed di
rectly into the spinning bowl;
40-foot conveyors remove resi
due and tailing.
The separator is usually stopp
ed only once every eight-hour
hift, when the concentrate is
cleaned out. The machinery is
used only on gravels assaying
more than 25 cents of gold per
cubic yard, although cost of
treatment is said to be from 10
to 12 cents per cubic yard.
