The Backpacking Sluice Box is an ultra-portable gold prospecting sluice designed for hobby prospectors, fossickers and experienced gold hunters who need a lightweight, packable solution for recovering fine gold and heavy concentrates in remote locations.
Manufactured from durable, water-resistant PETG, the sluice is designed to break down into three interlocking sections for easy transport, fitting comfortably into a backpack while assembling quickly in the field. It uses standard 1/4-inch bolts for assembly, making replacement hardware readily available from most hardware stores.
The vortex riffle design provides excellent fine gold retention while maintaining smooth water flow, helping maximise gold recovery in a compact, lightweight package.
