The Sluice Goose "Goldrop" Paydirt Separator 

That's thing is genius! Forget paydirt, think Clean ups.

The inventor of this lives 20 minutes from me. I've seen this work in person when it was just a prototype. It's amazing how well it works.

Too complicated for me lol 😂 I’ll stick with panning and using my sluice...if I’d invest in something that complicated I’d make moonshine

Glad to see you doing review. All other viewings of this product. We’re by inventor.

Good video. I’ve been a fan of this since it came out. The problems you are having is due to classification. This tube separates material by weight. In trying to keep the big rocks in suspension, you are flushing the much lighter gold. When you get a lot of rocks mixed in with the gold, then those rocks are as heavy or heavier than the gold and will drop out with it. If you classify the material down by 4 or 5 mesh sizes so that all the material is the same size and run each one separately, you will get almost perfect gold only results because the gold is now heavier than the other material. This tube will recover down to 100 mesh and smaller easily if you classify it down so all the material is the same size. It will also work much faster. If you screen a bucket of material down to say 30 mesh and then add a little material to adjust your flow, then you can just keep adding that size material all day and it will fill your bottle with nice clean gold.

My infinity cleanup sluice will chew through that material in 5 minutes and get 95%+ recovery!!!!!! This video was excellent Shane 👍🏻✌️✅

Super cool fluid dynamics! I love that it is clear so you can see it work

Really cool invention there. I agree with you. Just run everything through a few times and see what kind of recovery rate you get. It runs it so quickly you could make several runs in no time.

This machines is prettty awesome! Thanks for sharring! Just so you know.... These valves control the debit/flow ; not the pressure. The pressure comes from the pump and pressure regulator unit. It is the key to understand how it works.

Very cool! I remember seeing the videos for these! Goldhog tried to make similar right after the videos first came out like 10-12 years ago. "Gold hog cyclone" or some such was what they had called theirs.

I've seen this work in person. I want one. So much easier than anything else I use for getting the shiny. The guy that made this is a genius. Out works panning, sluicing, and gold wheels. All you got to do is go get the dirt classify it and run it thru. I'm saving my money to get one. Nice review on the Gold Drop.

Ive watched quite a few vids on the sluice goose and this is by far the most concise and real one! This channel is excellence!

Very cool! An easy tweak to the system would be to add a small PCV pipe to the handle of the valve at the bottom, ~6" longer than the existing handle. Allowing for greater accuracy in smaller adjustments.

Rube Goldberg himself would be proud of this contraption. Taking something simple and making it way too complicated and how much does it cost?!?

Doc from Gold Hog came out with the gold cyclone a few years back before this one, it used the same principals but a bit easier to use and a fraction of what this one costs. Worked just as good but I don't think it went over to well cause he only carried it for a year or two. To be honest I like both of them.

Thanks for posting shane!

As always appreciate the genuine review .

NEAT MACHINE. SEEMS LIKE IT WOULD BE GREAT FOR THE FLOUR GOLD IF YOU WERE ON THE BEACH AND JUST WANTED TO RUN A LOT OF FINE SAND IN A SHORT TIME AND MAYBE PROCESS THE TAILINGS LATER.

Been eyeballing this invention for a couple of years now. Glad to see an independent review. Thanks for that Shane. I did always think about wear.. and obviously you need to see the material to know if pressure set right. So if it gets scratched up or heavy clay mirks up the water it would be a problem. My material is Pilbara Pindan clay and is extremely abrasive. Wears my fingernails off just stiring by hand in a bucket. Hmm

It is a awesome machine, I use mine all the time. John Richmond comes over and we run cape disappointment sand ..we didn't lose and gold at all...you will get better the more you use this machine.

Shane!!! I got my paydirt bag. My son loved it! The guitar pick, decal, crystals and cools rocks were a great touch. Anybody wondering about getting Klesh Krums.... do it. It’s worth it! And it’s guaranteed amounts of gold.

Great video Shane

Wow that's impressive! Somebody spent a lot of thought in this invention. That's pretty cool

This is a very unique piece of machinery. I use to own a Desert Fox and it was difficult to operate.

Awesome video bro. Thats for keeping all of us informed with the latest and greatest equipment out there!

Great, honest opinion on this product. In essence, this machine is just awesome! The recovery rate for someone like me would just mean I’d be running the machine all day just to make sure.

sure could have used that separator when i lived in Juneau Alaska. 5 gallon buckets loaded with black sand and micron gold. Took me just a couple weekends to go through what i collected on one day out. Bet it work nice for those operations up on beach,Yukon or anywhere. Nice,. hope i find reason to get one.

I love the experiments. Cheers!

Dave at Goldbay made a video on this same machine when was first produced. Even had it on his website for a minute. Cool machine but the cost is ridiculous. I would prefer to pan a ounce of gold for the cost of this machine. Thank you for the video brother!!!👍👍👍

Dont know if i want one, but very cool to see how it works. Thanks for sharing. Its something different but cool. Keep the vids coming, i enjoy a lot!

Major coolness Shane, nice job of showing us the workings!

awesome vid Shane. cheers for posting

This is one of the coolest things I've seen. Will I ever buy it? Nope and its not very practical but the cool factor is off the charts

Hey klesh once you get more used to this can you do like a $1000 gold bucket or something and see how fast you can run through it with this machine think it would be quite interesting

Great new toy!! The mechanical design has potential - like you said it just needs a few adjustments. Thanks for sharing ☺️

Ok, this is actually kind of amazing and super ingenious. If this can be fine tuned and consistently accurate, it could be game changing. I love it.

Man that was cool seeing that working! Seeing that gold drop was nice. Awesome video

I am a huge fan of Chris from Vogus prospecting. I have seen him use your guitar pick many times for perspective. This is my first KG vid and you got a new sub

Looks like some fine pay dirt

its like a water cyclone sepperator (like the ones in the bagless vacuums) nice

That is absolutely amazing

This is a awesome invention. Great review Shane 👍

Great invention Shane👌🏻 Love your vids👍🏻

So cool man! Thanks for the awesome review.

that thing looks like something outta a old sci fi movies in a mad scientist lab

One thing i can see as you screen down to smaller size start it with lower water flow not .5 but try .4 or .3 as you go down in size you need way less water flow starting i think that having it at .5 as you dump in yr cons you push gold out right away until u dial it down!

this machine in an industrial setting would be impressive. Set up in a cascading system would be neat to see. First stage would go into second second into third third tailings goes into second feed.

This is amazing. Thanks for sharing Shane⚒⚒👍👍

Very cool setup

looks cool

Very cool invention.

That was a golden tornado!

It’s an awesome machine for sure and like u said it a several runs to extract 99% of the gold

Hey Shane, love your videos! I was introduced to the gold panning wave by Pioneer Pauly on facebook, Pauly did a video with Dan Hurd which prompted me to watch his material, after watching a good bit of his material i saw his paydirt review videos where he reviewed your "Klesh Krums" and i decided I'd check out your youtube channel. Over the past couple months ive watched almost every paydirt video you've put out lol. I actually just joined your discord, followed your twitch, instagram, and facebook pages, and with my next check I'll hopefully become a patreon supporter! I love your content and the great lengths you go to to do honest reviews of companys (using decoys and such.) You, Pauly and Dan, have inspired me to try my hand at hunting for gold! This christmas I told my wife i wanted a bag of paydirt and some gold pans, i would have told her to do your paydirt but i looked at your site a couple times and all the beginner and intermediate stuff was sold out so i decided I'd go with lynch mining or gold bay paydirt, as they have been decently reviewed by you a couple times and both have a guaranteed minimum as you have taught me to look for. Thank you for everything you do, i look forward to every new video!

That's a pretty kool separator, Nice 👍

Sweet video dude!

I see the flour gold catching in the valve chamber next to where you showed it sticking against the side.

It seems like a very good proof of concept but could really do with fine tuning to make it more accurate

Awesome video pretty cool unit practice practice works out the kinks I would guess thank you for sharing

definitely would love to see a video of you using this on the river!

Pretty cool. Once you master it I imagine things become much easier

New subscriber here. Very cool machine! Living in a “no-gold” state, I live vicariously thru gold videos...lol! Thank you so much for making them.

I hope when I come to Colorado next year I would love too meet you n learn from you. Your videos are very helpful. Thank you.

Nice invention, will check🎉😊

interesting concept

Great vid very impressive piece of kit ,coming from someone who s never panned gold 😳

Very cool machine.

Interesting machine, but I can thing of alot better ways to spend $2000 on mining equipment in my opinion.

That's wild! 🤘🏼

Shane, you can get a Blue Bowl for like 1/8 the price of this thing. It seems to be much more simple and appears to work very well. I do not have one but I have watched many videos on them and will probably get one in the future.

It's interesting to see inventions from others. I'm not sure if many will feel this product is worth it. Maybe if you can't do the traditional method of using the rivers. Still interesting to see.

Well, that is a neat set up cool... wow NICE!

I like and appreciate that you wait to ask for thumbs and subscriptions till the end. I detest the people that ask for thumbs and subscribers even before the content. It always strikes am as a server asking for their tip before the meal.

So basically anyway this is a type of media reactor allowing the light to float to the top and wash away and allowing the heavy like the median side of the sink to the bottom allowing you to collect whatever

Still cool to see new technology for getting gold

That's pretty cool😎He needs to make a large version...

As it ages, is that top "funnel" going to scratch up and catch the smaller stuff like the oil spot did ? Pretty well thought out piece of kit though.

its a very cool machine, could be good for running cons until you get down to the toughest of black sands. like maybe a step after the sluice box is cleaned out.

That's a pretty nifty machine

Do a pan and pay dirt combo with a little container

Very cool invention he made! An idea, make a test pay dirt but know the exact weight of the gold before and after.

Shane, do you think if the inventor put something that would spin the heavyset right before it dropped into the bottoms sight tube it would help separate the gold better?

Interesting!

That machine takes the joy out of home panning.... I do not pan paydirt fast for a reason....it relaxes me and helps me refocus. I guess this is a good thought out product and it's intentions were good.

That would be good for what we do here in the Dominican Republic we run a lit of dirt

Space Case Paydirt on EBAY rocks!

Dan Hurd tested this also, it is a interesting machine.

Dan Hurd also has one of these to probably talk to him you probably give you some better hints on how to use it hes had one about as long as you have

That things pretty cool looks like it works good. Great review 👍🏻👍🏻

Man that looked like something Doc Oc would use 😁, pretty cool lil machine get her set right. Enjoyed the video man 👍 PEACE 🙂🌞✝️

That impossible bag is no joke man but great demonstatrion of that machine shane 👍

This is like my reflux still. It took me a while to get it figured out but now it’s easy to use.

I love mine!

very cool

The gate valve doesn't need to be closed when it's running, just when you're removing the jar. Unless you want the mess. :P And it's one of the two things I don't like. Sand will destroy it fairly quickly. The other is the 1/4 turn valves for flow control. I prefer a nice multi-turn valve for better precision. Can't wait to be able to afford to buy one, though. And, yeah, I was going to suggest multiple runs for the more difficult dirts. And it might skyrocket if one removed the magnetic sands first.

Ive not seen anything like that before but it worked

Wicked cool machine, wonder how it would do out at a mine. Probably wouldn't need a huge shaker table with that thing around. Maybe a bigger scale machine like that out at a mine

Might run the lighter stuff with higher recovery if the machine was set to run less aggressively and for a longer amount of time.

My Falcon pan cost me $10. I'll stick with it for my cleanups.

Thanks Shane. You just saved me 2k.
