Camel Mining Pro-Camel 24 Spiral Gold Panning Machine & 120 Volt Power Supply

History of the Pro-Camel

The Pro-Camel 24 (24″ Spiral Wheel) is the big brother of the Desert Fox and the largest 12-volt automatic spiral gold panning machine manufactured anywhere. It was introduced to the mining community in 2009 and has received rave reviews since its release and is known as one of the top fine gold recovery systems on the market today.

Why Does The Pro-Camel Work So Well?

The Pro-Camel uses the same basic technology of gold separation as a traditional gold pan: Water, Motion, & Gravity. Because gold is so much heavier than the other material that it’s found with, it can be easily separated from like sized material.

With a traditional gold pan, you create a slurry of water and material mixing it well to allow the gold to drop down to the bottom of the pan. You then slowly & carefully wash off the lighter material by dipping the edge of the pan in the water.

The same basic principles are being applied with the Pro-Camel, but much faster and more efficiently than panning by hand.

The Pro-Camel’s Aqua-Jet provides an ample water supply to the edge and bottom of the spiral wheel to create the slurry needed to allow the gold to separate from the other material. As it does, the gold is scooped up in the 15 spiral riffles and stays there because of the deep “V” design. As the wheel turns, the spray bar rinses the lighter material away allowing the gold to ride up the spirals. When the gold drops into the second stage, any material tagging along for the ride is washed away allowing the clean gold to be deposited through the center hole of the wheel and into the gold catch cup hanging on the back of the machine.

You might be thinking to yourself, that this is all well and good for pickers and small flake gold, but what about the fines?

Can the Pro-Camel get the fine gold too?

Well, the answer is a resounding YES!

When the base material is properly classified, meaning the relative size of the material being processed is the same, the Pro-Camel is hard to beat for recovering fine gold.
