At 26 inches long and only 4.5 lbs, the Nugget model is the perfect size for backpacking or heading out to sample a new location. Nugget shares all the features and design of the Explorer model, with the material transport deck shorten by 10 inches. Depending on flow conditions, it may be necessary to classify material down to 1/4-inch.
Clean-outs are easy and fast, taking less than a minute. Simply place the fluid bed end of the sluice in a 5-gallon bucket of water, plunge the chamber end up and down a few times to empty it, and you are ready to put the Gold Trap back into the water to capture more gold.
