Wave Table

Demo Video

2 minute video

August 4, 2012

We’ve had a lot of calls and emails about the last season of ‘Gold Rush Alaska’. Many of the calls were from customers saying,  “they don’t know what they’re doing”; “it’s an embarrassment to real miners”; “I can’t understand it, your table works great”; “what are they doing wrong?”  Please remember, this was a Reality Show made for television viewer - drama appealing to emotions. Unfortunately, the feedback I’ve received is that people were hoping for an educational series on how to get gold.

          First, let’s clarify that Action Mining is in no way associated with the miners from Sandy Oregon except for coincidentally 1) being from the same town, and 2) being the supplier of the Wave Table. We did not know these men before they purchased the table from us and they initially asked for no help in setting it up. We did not know they were going to be doing a series for Discovery Channel until later. Mike happened to be up there at John Schnabel’s mill setting up his Wave Table. Dorsey came over and asked Mike to stop by their camp if he had time. At the end of a long day’s run, John & Mike went over to the Hoffman’s site. Mike adjusted the table, ran a sample that Dorsey had, and got a gold line.

       If you saw the last season here’s our answers to what

they did wrong with the WT (Wave Table).....

1. They destabilized the table by taking the slab out of the

ground and loading it onto a floor jack. The table motion was

being transferred to the ground instead of to the table top.

Similar to the screen deck incident - not securing the screen

down caused it to move. All the raising and lowering of the

table was wrong. Once the material is screened properly, you find the correct height adjustment and leave it there. Dorsey almost had it running, and then it was sabotaged.  

2. No classification - large flakes should have never even been on the table. They should have been screening. A ¼” rock will always weigh more than an 1/8” piece of gold. The sample taken showing gold at the bottom riffle of the table was because larger rocks pushed it there. Tails were collected, but not checked for any gold so it is unknown if any gold was actually lost.

3. The wave table does not make gold, it recovers gold. They’d done no proper sampling (or assaying) or processing of material with known gold. It’s like Jack threw down his hat and decided to dig there. From the onset, their desperation caused mistake after mistake. No professional miner would work this way. There’s definitely gold on this property, but 30 buckets of cons and only 2½ oz of gold total! Wrong area to work......there was hardly enough gold to show up on the table.
