- Being modular means you can get started with prospecting with a sluice relatively cheaply while having room and option to grow as does your interest in Gold Prospecting.
- The Modular Sluice has a removable Flare that is designed to channel water into your sluice and offers a slick plate area to dump gold bearing material onto when prospecting.
- The 10" variation refers to the width of the recovery system in the sluice.
- This is called Vortex Dream mat ® and is currently one of the most efficient gold recovery matting systems in the world.
- The 10" modular sluice has a flare that fits inside the sluice when broken down to save on shipping.
- This sluice range is designed to be able to be carried by postal services anywhere mail can be delivered.
- The 10" modular sluice can process alot of material fast and suits most able prospectors in terms of shovel speed.

- There are options for the header box as well, you can remove the rear baffle and add a header flare kit which opens up your feed area and allows for a spray bar conversion.
Why convert to a spray bar?
- When converting from a river sluice to a power sluice
- The spray bar allows you to add water so you are no longer relying on sufficient flow in a stream, you can take this one step further and add pressure to the feeder box which aids in liberating gold from dirt and gravels.
- With better cleaning you can see better recovery especially when working clay's.
- There's also an option to add a sluice classification tray which if you've added all the above accessories you have converted your river sluice into a fully functional forward classifying highbanker.
- The tray also works in a river sluice without a head box allowing you to better work your material before exposing to the recovery system.
- Running pumps to deliver water you want to run a minimum 4000 GPH for the 10 inch.
- The 4700 GPH bilge pump can be necked down to 32mm to restrict flow.
