Dr. Sluice The Prospector Sluice Drop Riffle Sluice Box is a must-have piece of gear for serious gold prospectors heading off the beaten path. Lightweight, compact, and highly efficient, this sluice is designed to travel easily and perform exceptionally—no matter how remote your adventure.
Inspired by classic drop riffle sluice designs from around the world—renowned for the ability to capture fine flour gold—this model has been refined by experienced prospectors to meet real-world field demands. Deep side walls help prevent river surges from washing material out of the sluice, while the compact profile allows additional equipment, such as a Henderson pump, to pack neatly inside your rucksack. The result is maximum gear efficiency and a stealthy hike in and out of your gold spot.
