Process intent

When to choose a modular gold recovery plant

Select an alluvial wash train for free-gold placer feeds, or a hard-rock crush-and-gravity package when ore requires size reduction before concentration — with cleanup matched to security and product form.

Alluvial solutions

Wash, sluice and concentration packages for alluvial gold

Alluvial packages focus on reliable preparation and gravity recovery — modular where practical so plant can be established, moved or expanded without unnecessary fixed infrastructure.

  • Wash plants

    Modular wash plant arrangements for alluvial feeds — structured for practical water use, throughput and site access.

  • Sluices

    Sluice-based recovery stages sized for duty, with interfaces to feed, wash and concentrate handling.

  • Concentrators

    Gravity concentrators integrated into alluvial packages where recovery performance and operability require them.

  • Mobile / trailer options

    Mobile or trailer-mounted configurations where relocation, access or staged development is part of the project plan.

Hard-rock solutions

Crushing and gravity concentration packages

Hard-rock packages address size reduction and gravity recovery as a single modular intent — suitable for small-to-medium operations where capital, power and site access constrain stick-built plant.

  • Crushing stages

    Primary and secondary crushing duty defined for feed size and target product — packaged for modular plant layouts where suitable.

  • Gravity concentration packages

    Gravity concentration circuits arranged as coherent packages after size reduction, matched to ore and recovery targets.

  • Integrated hard-rock trains

    Crushing and gravity stages combined into modular process trains with clear material-handling interfaces.

Key equipment

Equipment that typically forms part of these plants

Exact equipment selection depends on ore, water, power and duty. Packages are configured — not sold as fixed model numbers.

  • Sluices

    Primary or secondary recovery stages for alluvial circuits, specified for feed rate and concentrate handling.

  • Centrifugal concentrators

    Centrifugal gravity concentrators where recovery duty and concentrate grade requirements support their use.

  • Scrubbers

    Scrubbing stages for clay-bound or agglomerated feeds ahead of screening and recovery.

  • Screens & classification

    Screening and classification to prepare product streams for wash, gravity or stockpile.

  • Crushers (hard-rock)

    Crushing equipment selected for feed size, product size and modular plant interfaces.

  • Pumps, feeders & material handling

    Feed, transfer and slurry handling equipment that connects wash, crush and recovery stages into a workable plant.

Final concentrate cleanup

Clean-up room equipment and concentrate finishing packages

Recovery is incomplete without a clear path from primary concentrate to a finished, secure product. Modular gold packages can include clean-up stages and clean-up room arrangements — tables, finishing systems and secure containers — defined as part of the overall plant scope.

  • Shaking tables & upgrade stages

    Table-based cleaning and concentrate upgrade where final product grade requires finer gravity finishing after primary recovery.

  • Clean-up systems

    Practical clean-up circuit packages that handle concentrate from sluices, centrifugals or other primary stages through to a saleable or secure product stream.

  • Clean-up room equipment

    Equipment selected for a controlled clean-up environment — concentrate handling, finishing stages and secure product transfer as duty requires.

  • Security containers & secure packages

    Secure container or modular clean-up room packages where product security, access control and defined operating procedures are part of the plant requirement.

Clean-up scope is always project-specific: product grade targets, security requirements, power and water, and whether clean-up is continuous or batch. Tell us how concentrate is produced and we will help define a practical clean-up package that fits the plant.

Benefits of the modular approach

Why modular packages suit gold projects

Modular delivery supports gold projects that need practical recovery plant without the programme and civils burden of fully stick-built facilities of similar duty.

  • Faster establishment

    Modular packages reduce open-ended site construction so recovery capacity can be brought online within a clearer programme.

  • Defined package scope

    Package boundaries support clearer commercial discussion than loosely specified equipment lists alone.

  • Suited to African site conditions

    Layouts consider access, power, water and logistics typical of artisanal, small-scale and medium gold projects.

  • Operable and maintainable

    Focus on practical circuits operators can run and service — not theoretical complexity.

Customisation & pre-packed supply

Built-to-suit circuits and complete package supply

Where ore, water or site layout requires adaptation beyond a standard package, circuits can be customised — including recovery and clean-up scope. Where a complete plant package is specified for shipment — particularly into African destinations — Procurement & Supply supports tools, piping material, selected equipment and pre-packed complete plant packages.
