    12" x 38" Combo Mat Gold Sluice Box | High-Efficiency River Sluicing Equipment

    Join the new gold rush and equip yourself with the absolute maximum width available in instream gold sluicing technology. The 12" x 38" Combo Mat Gold Sluice Box is your ultimate tool for unparalleled gold recovery directly in the river. This premium stream sluice features an ultra-wide format designed to process massive amounts of material per hour, combined with a portable, shorter length engineered for easy transportation into remote areas and fast field deployment without sacrificing a single grain of gold.

    Crafted from heavy-duty 16 ga. aluminum and equipped with a rock-solid wing nut pressure clamp system, this box is built to handle the rigors of heavy river currents. At the top of every box, the specialized Micro Mat acts as an instant visual indicator—letting you see, catch, and know you've caught gold in real time. Once the gold checks in, it doesn't check out!

    Available in two distinct, field-tested 3-stage mat configurations to perfectly match your specific river flow and material conditions.

    Choose Your Configuration Variant:

    Variant 1: Micro / Micro-Dredge / Mini-Dredge Combo Sluice Box

    Built for active river currents, maximum volume instream processing, and aggressive vortex separation.

    • Stage 1: Micro Profile (2nd Gen) Section (Top): Your premier fine gold indicator. It lets you visually confirm you are on the gold instantly, eliminating the migration issues common with traditional ribbed mats in moving stream water.

    • Stage 2: Micro-Dredge Profile Section (Mid): Features a tight, hyper-efficient profile with over 2x the holding capacity of traditional mat designs. Its high-speed vortex cells utilize dynamic hydro-cyclone power to spin out light waste material and lock down fine gold instantly.

    • Stage 3: Mini-Dredge Profile Section (Bottom): The ultimate high-flow powerhouse safety net. It acts as the heavy-duty engine of the mat, making the system incredibly forgiving on both pitch and water flow adjustments in changing river conditions.

    • Best For: Fast river currents, high-volume stream setups, running unclassified material, and prospectors looking to maximize raw yardage and fine gold retention simultaneously across a massive 12" wide run.

    Variant 2: Micro / Cape-D / Mini Combo Sluice Box

    The ultimate setup for fine gold precision, heavy black sand handling, and extreme concentrate reduction right in the creek.

    • Stage 1: Micro Mat Section (Top): Delivers insane fine gold recovery that you can visibly see. It instantly indicates when you're on the gold without the gold migration issues common with other ribbed mats.

    • Stage 2: Cape-D (New High-Low Version) Section (Mid): Optimized for exceptional fine gold recovery, particularly effective when dealing with heavy black sands and slower river currents.

    • Stage 3: Mini Mat Section (Bottom): Boasts a renowned "front-row gold" reputation, giving you the confidence that both fine gold and chunky nuggets are securely locked down by the natural flow of the river.

    • Best For: Slower moving river sections, high black sand creeks, and operations running at a slightly reduced water velocity but requiring commercial-scale wide processing.

    Sluice Box Key Features & Specifications:

    • Premium Portable River Design: The compact 38" length makes it easy to backpack into remote river locations, while the massive 12" width provides the absolute maximum surface area needed for high-volume, commercial-scale instream work.

    • Rugged Construction: Engineered from durable 16 ga. aluminum to withstand rocks, heavy gravels, and years of abuse in the riverbed.

    • Wing Nut Pressure Clamp: Built with a sturdy, reliable wing nut clamp system that locks your mat firmly into place, preventing any material or water from bypassing the recovery system in turbulent currents.

    • Sluice Box Dimensions: 12" wide x 38" long.

    • Mat Dimensions: Equipped with a 12" wide x 35" long multi-stage Dream Mat.

    Please Note:

    • Color: While the physical color of your polyurethane mat may vary based on production runs, its exceptional gold recovery performance never will.

    • Profile Note: The tight, complex cell structures of the Micro and Micro-Dredge sections may occasionally feature minor cosmetic air bubbles or surface imperfections from the molding process. These are purely cosmetic and do not hinder the mat's functionality or fluid dynamics.

    What’s in your box? The 12" x 38" Heavy-Duty Aluminum River Sluice Box, your chosen 3-Stage Combo Dream Mat, and the integrated Wing Nut Pressure Clamp system. Get ready to transform your river prospecting today!
