ASM equipment · Rapidly deployable

Practical equipment for artisanal, small-scale and early-stage mining

Mobile wash plants, sluices, small hard-rock gravity packages, prospecting plants and complete field packages — right-sized for alluvial and small hard-rock applications where speed of deployment and operable simplicity matter more than oversized plant.

What we supply for artisanal and small-scale operations

Equipment is selected for rapid deployment, operable simplicity and real site constraints — alluvial and small hard-rock applications included. Complete packages can be configured ready for field deployment.

Mobile / trailer-mounted wash plants

Compact wash plant packages for alluvial and similar feeds — arranged for transport, relocation and practical establishment on limited civils. Suitable where operators need recovery capacity without a permanent plant footprint.

  • Faster establishment on remote or early-stage sites
  • Trailer or mobile packaging for access-limited locations
  • Interfaces for screening and gravity recovery stages

Portable and fixed sluice systems

Sluice-based gravity recovery for operators who need simple, maintainable stages — portable where mobility matters, fixed where a longer-term layout is preferred. Includes scavenger sluices for secondary recovery where duty supports them.

  • Primary and scavenger sluice arrangements as required
  • Portable options for prospecting and short campaigns
  • Fixed layouts for continuous small-scale production

Small hard-rock gravity plants

Right-sized hard-rock packages combining crushing and gravity concentration for small-scale duty — without overbuilding fixed plant that is hard to fund or move.

  • Matched to small hard-rock throughputs and access
  • Crushing and gravity stages as a coherent package
  • Path to expand as the project proves up

Compact concentrators

Gravity concentrators selected for recovery duty and operability at artisanal and small-scale throughputs — integrated with wash, sluice or hard-rock trains as required.

  • Duty-matched concentrator selection
  • Practical concentrate handling interfaces
  • Works with wash and sluice packages

Mobile prospecting & field test plants

Compact plants for bulk sampling, field testing and early metallurgical insight — so teams can evaluate alluvial or small hard-rock opportunities before committing to larger plant.

  • Field-deployable for campaigns and bulk sampling
  • Practical recovery for evaluation, not overbuilt plant
  • Informs later package plant or production decisions

Small cleanup systems

Right-sized clean-up arrangements for finishing concentrate from sluices, wash plants or compact concentrators — practical finishing stages for small-scale product streams.

  • Completes the path from primary recovery to product
  • Sized for ASM and prospecting throughputs
  • Can integrate with larger clean-up packages later

Small-scale static & mobile scrubbers, trommels and screens

Preparation equipment for clay-bound, sticky or alluvial feeds — static or mobile scrubbers, trommels and screens configured for small-scale duty and limited site infrastructure.

  • Prepares feed for sluices and gravity recovery
  • Static or mobile packaging as access requires
  • Practical water and clay handling at ASM scale

Generators & pumps

Power and water support equipment selected for field and small-scale plant duty — so wash, recovery and clean-up packages can operate where grid power or permanent pumping infrastructure is not available.

  • Supports mobile and remote plant operation
  • Matched to package water and power demand
  • Practical field logistics

Complete prospecting & artisanal mining packages

Integrated packages that combine wash, recovery, clean-up and support equipment into a field-ready set — so operators receive a coherent package rather than a disconnected equipment list.

  • Complete packages ready for field deployment
  • Clearer commercial scope than piece-by-piece buying
  • Configured for alluvial or small hard-rock starting points

Why this path works

Built for how small-scale projects actually start

Artisanal, small-scale and early-stage projects need workable plant quickly — not oversized industrial systems. The priority is maintainable equipment, clear packages and a path to grow — from trailer wash plants and sluices through to practical clean-up stages.

  • Rapid deployment

    Mobile, trailer-mounted and compact fixed options reduce the time and infrastructure needed to get recovery capacity working.

  • Remote and early-stage sites

    Suited to access-limited locations and projects that need plant before full infrastructure is in place.

  • Complete packages available

    Prospecting and artisanal packages can be supplied as a coherent field-ready set — not only isolated equipment items.

  • Room to grow

    Start at ASM scale and expand capacity, add stages, or step toward modular package plants as the project matures.

Growth path

From first plant to a fuller package

ASM equipment is a practical entry point. As operations mature, the same recovery intent can connect to broader modular package plants, gold recovery packages and equipment modules.

  1. Step 1

    Start practical

    Select wash plant, sluice, prospecting plant, concentrator or small hard-rock gravity equipment matched to current duty and site access.

  2. Step 2

    Operate and prove

    Establish recovery capacity with equipment operators can run and maintain under real ASM and field conditions.

  3. Step 3

    Scale or integrate

    Add stages, increase throughput, or step into modular package plants and gold recovery packages when the project justifies a larger scope.
