ASR Outdoor 50" Gold Sluice Box Folding Aluminum Prospecting Equipment

I recently purchased the ASR Outdoor 50" Sluice Box, and it has exceeded my expectations in every way. The build quality is outstanding, with durable aluminum construction that ensures it can withstand harsh conditions and frequent use. Setting it up was a breeze, thanks to its user-friendly design and clear instructions.One of the standout features is its efficiency in gold recovery. The riffles and matting are perfectly designed to capture even the smallest particles of gold, making my prospecting trips far more productive. The length of the sluice box provides ample space for processing larger amounts of material, which significantly boosts my output.Additionally, the portability of the ASR 50" Sluice Box is a major plus. It’s lightweight and easy to transport, fitting comfortably in my vehicle without taking up too much space. Cleaning up is also a simple process, allowing me to quickly move on to the next spot.Overall, I highly recommend the ASR Outdoor 50" Sluice Box to both beginners and experienced prospectors. It’s a reliable, efficient, and well-crafted piece of equipment that has greatly enhanced my gold panning adventures.

For the price, this is a good slice. THE GOOD: Folds up nicely & can fit in a pack or gear box well. Easily assembled and can last several seasons with proper use & care. The provided miner's moss is good, as is the felt under it. The screws, wing nuts & keeper nuts might be stainless, not marked with typical 304 or 316. Marked as something illegible. It Works! I got gold! THE BAD: Shoulder strap is more of a hand strap. Too short for a shoulder. I'm probably going to ditch it. Some of the keeper nuts were not fully engaging the screws they were on. Keep an eye out. I added stainless fender washers to the section nuts to minimize damage to the aluminum. The slots for the screw posts were a bit oversized, the fender washers should manage that. I also trimmed off a little miner's moss to accommodate the larger fender washers. My biggest worry is the quality & longevity of the adhesive between the upper aluminum section and the black ribbed matt. Mine was separated upon arrival, although the adhesive was still tacky. I used some scrap lumber & bar clamps to press it together, hoping for permanent fixation (is that proper use of that word?) I would recommend this product at this price point.

These cheap sluices, in my opinion, are perfect for designing custom, high value sluices for what you need for your area. Although not yet finished, this 18" wide flare and 8 foot long overall length will be getting upgraded with a highbanking mod that can also accommodate a dredge. And if needed I can attach another 40" to the flare for dirt cheap. My requirement for my area needs to be able to recover VERY fine gold AND sapphires. In all I will have about $400.00 in just the basic highbanker build which easily competes with the well known $2000.00 commercially built flare unit. Prospecting is a tool to find the gold. Mining is for profit. My design will produce profit. And as for the mat, miners moss cannot be beat, period. I've used all the Gucci mats and I'm not impressed because they are NOT forgiving at all. In fact the manufacturers of those mats state that they have to be tuned. That's because all the pay is exposed to the current in the ripples. Run too fast and you blow everything out the end. Run too slow and they clog. And even if you tune them, other materials bumps out any exposed gold which means you have to clean out often. If you shut down you aren't mining. Any gold trapped in miners moss is just that, trapped! It can't go anywhere, and a long wide sluice can be run all day without worry of losing what is trapped.

Easy to use

construction was good. portable and light weight. bought it for my mother who is disabled, and she can barely go to difficult places and needed to be light. mostly she just gets the paydirt bags from reliable distributers. But she does want to go gold panning. I think it's going to be useful to us this summer. Its what she wanted.

Works well just tighten up the nuts and bolts. The transition from the black matt to the miners moss is not good. It’s a half inch higher and a lot of sand and and fine gold was under the carpet

I gave this to my wife for a present. I can’t wait to get out with her and give it a shot. Hope to find a little color in that carpet . This seems really well made. I just wish that it came with some kind of instructions or tips on how to use it.

My first sluice so have nothing to compare it to. However, I do a lot of backwoods hiking/camping & this ASR folding sluice worked perfectly for me. Relatively light, very compact when folded, sets up easily & catches even VERY small gold. Have recovered more gold than I thought I would with it. Highly recommend the product.

I haven’t used it yet but seems it will do the job .

Taking it for a test drive this weekend. It seems pretty durable and the aluminum is pretty thick.

Exactly what comes in the image, no manual or instructions on setting up though but pretty easy to work out if you refer to the picture. Bigger screws are for the strap, funnel can be placed inside sideways before folding the other pieces in. A little jigging around in order to get a more compact fold. Wont actually fully collapse in when folded but that is apparently normal. No manual so no instructions on proper maintenance and servicing, should be brought up with KLONDIKE GOLD SUPPLIES

Yup it’s good and can process the dirt fast. Seems like quality to me. It’s Darrell approved

Box came damaged. Sleuce is slightly bent and missing a wing nut. It did arrive quickly though.
