- The Mini Max Power Sluice Concentrator is one of the most versatile packages that we have ever made. Whether you’re working in river
banks, desert placers or just cleaning concentrates from larger equipment, this Multi Tool of Prospecting will always be a part of your arsenal. This multi-purpose package includes interchangeable matting for the lower sluice box, interchangeable wire classifiers for the flood hopper classifier assembly, lightweight easy-adjust legs for unsurpassed setup time, and a flare that converts the unit into the Ultimate River Sluice. A newer stronger American-made 2,200 GPH 12 volt pump provides greater flow and increased head lift. This newly redesigned unit is now equipped with an improved ball valve that allows for more precise flow control and connects to a longer 8 foot pressure hose. A new flood header provides smooth water flow over a slick plate into a 6” section of Miracle Mat. The top assembly lifts off easily to inspect the lower sluice. Material is then washed over a removable 1/4” classifier grizzly screen removing waste gravel. The lower sluice is lined with 13 inches of our newly improved Miracle Mat placed under 10 inches of expanded metal, this duo recovers both fine and course gold and can handle larger volumes of material. When using it as a concentrator system, replace the high profile riffle with a second section of Miracle Matting and replace the grizzly screen with a finer 1/8” woven mesh screen, converting the unit into a 34 inch Super Concentrator. When used as a power sluice, you can expect a capacity of up to 1/2 of a yard per hour and about a third of its capacity when used as a concentrating machine. This device can also be operated by a small single gas-powered pump (P90G Pump Kit located on page 13). This ideal backpacking unit folds up into a compact size of 36” x 14” x 7” and weighs under 23 lbs. Pin-lock folding legs make adjusting elevation a breeze. The included
flare converts the system into a hand sluice as shown in Concentrator Kit- Model MMPSCK. American made and built to last.

A " KEENE KRADLE ". Used with the handle of your units. A single stake with an arm that stabilizes the unit. Less legs to worry about. Maybe a set the cradle then lock the sluice in place type of set up with water line marks of some sort. I'm not the "engineer " 😅 Something good for sloping underwater banks. High water.

Cool looking unit !!!!!
love these videos from Keene Eng.
Pat, keene has always been my prefered equipment. Ever since you brought my 5" to me at A&B. Thanks for that. I just subscribed to your channel.
Isn't the expanded metal piece facing the wrong direction?
The screen leans towards the direction of the water.

I always thought that, like a larger riffle, the water should climb the slope of the perforated metal, and fall off the sharp drop on the back side. You have the water plowing into the expanded riffle and being directed down into the mat beneath.
Great looking sluice..good set up...the best I have seen...I would love to have this unit...how does it compare to miracle mat for catching superfine gold......this looks very efficient for all size gold but I'd love to see a test comparison with this and the cube ..any chance of a compare test.....
So You can actually Take the mini max that was run with a 12 volt pump apart turn it into a river Sluice by adding the wide top part ,If so I want one Great job guys
Hi Pat, How does this compare with the new A52S Sluice box? Other than classification, is gold recovery comparable? Better?
Can I purchase those swivel legs separately to mount on my Keene A52?
I wish I could sell them; however, they as super expensive to make. The legs probably cost around $65.00 to make. We can handle the higher cost but only in, the larger package.
