The Gold Genie Spiral Panner recovers 95% of gold from concentrates down to 400 mesh - far more than traditional hand panning which loses up to 50% of precious metals. This automated system processes black sand concentrates faster and more efficiently than manual methods.
Key Features
- 95% gold recovery rate - Captures fine gold down to 400 mesh that hand panning often misses
- 18-inch injection-molded blue spiral pan - Sharp ridges and deep spirals work wet or dry for maximum efficiency
- Dual-speed 12V DC motor - Switch between 15 RPM and 22 RPM based on material type
- Adjustable controls - Fine-tune water spray volume and pan angle for optimal recovery
- Complete recirculating system - Built-in 12V pump allows operation anywhere with minimal water
- 5-year factory warranty - Oregon-manufactured with 1-year pump and motor coverage
How It Works
The Gold Genie uses centrifugal force and water flow to separate gold from black sand concentrates. Material is fed onto the spinning spiral pan where heavier gold particles migrate to collection grooves while lighter materials wash away. The stainless steel center fitting allows for amalgamation techniques if desired.
Gold and values collect in the high-capacity 10.5-inch collection pan at the rear. The anodized steel frame provides years of reliable service in harsh prospecting conditions. Total power draw is less than 4 amps, making it perfect for portable prospecting operations.
Who This Is For
Ideal for recreational prospectors who want to maximize recovery from their concentrates without the backbreaking work of extensive hand panning. Whether you're processing material from gold detecting or traditional placer mining, this system dramatically improves your gold recovery rate.
The Recreational Model is designed for hobbyists and weekend prospectors who process moderate amounts of material. For higher volume operations, consider the Miner Model with adjustable height frame.
