1800GSM Gold Mining Carpet PP & Polyester Blend Gold Sluice Mat with Waterproof

This industrial-grade gold mining carpet is a high-performance gravity separation consumable engineered specifically for fine gold capture in mineral processing. Made from a durable polypropylene (PP) and polyester fiber blend with a 1800GSM heavy-duty construction, it is designed to trap micron-sized gold particles and fine gold flakes within its dense crimped fiber structure, drastically reducing gold loss in tailings.

It serves as a core matching component for sluice boxes, gold wash plants and mineral separation equipment, widely adopted by placer gold mines, tailings reprocessing projects, gold equipment manufacturers and small-scale mining operators. It delivers reliable fine gold recovery efficiency and long service life under continuous heavy-duty working conditions.

Optimized for field mining environments, this gold sluice mat combines material science and structural design to solve common deficiencies such as fine gold loss, fast wear and easy shifting.

1. Wear-Resistant PP & Polyester Blend Fiber

   The blended fiber formulation balances excellent abrasion resistance and structural resilience. Its 3D crimped fiber network forms countless micro-cavities that effectively intercept -200 mesh fine gold powder and flake gold, achieving a higher recovery rate than traditional felt or rubber mining mats. The fiber maintains its fluffy structure after repeated cleaning and reuse, lowering long-term consumable costs for mining operations.

2. 1800GSM High-Density Construction

   With a grammage of 1800 grams per square meter, the high-density fiber structure provides larger sand holding capacity, extends the interval between sluice cleaning cycles, and improves continuous operation efficiency. Uniform fiber distribution prevents slurry channeling, ensuring consistent gold capture performance across the entire mat surface.

3. 16-17mm Calibrated Thickness

   The 16-17mm thickness is precisely calibrated to balance flow permeability and particle retention. It eliminates gold penetration loss caused by overly thin mats, while avoiding slurry buildup and blockage issues common with excessively thick products. This optimized thickness adapts to a wide range of water flow velocities and slurry concentrations.

4. Waterproof Glue Backing

   The backing is coated with a high-strength waterproof adhesive layer, which blocks slurry seepage, prevents the mat from shifting or sliding during high-flow operation, and enhances overall dimensional stability. The waterproof backing also inhibits mold growth in humid outdoor environments, simplifies gold collection and cleaning, and extends service life in open-air mining sites.

1. Cut the carpet to match the internal dimensions of the sluice box, ensuring full bottom coverage with no gaps at joints.
2. Lay the carpet flat with the fiber side facing up, and secure the edges with pressure strips or buckles to prevent wrinkling and shifting during operation.
3. Thoroughly wet the carpet with clean water before feeding slurry to fully expand the fiber structure for optimal capture performance.

1. Control slurry flow velocity within the recommended range to avoid gold loss from excessive speed or silt buildup from low flow.
2. Clean and collect gold on a regular schedule. For conventional placer ore, clean every 2–3 hours; shorten the interval for high-grade ore.
3. To collect gold: stop slurry feed, remove the carpet, and rinse the fiber surface thoroughly with high-pressure water into a collection container. Precipitate and filter the collected slurry to obtain gold concentrate.
4. Rinse residual sand and mud after each use, and air dry in a cool place. Avoid prolonged sun exposure to prevent fiber aging.
