Has anyone either heard from someone else about or personally used the "Omega" highbanker yet to find out how it does on fine 100 to 200 mesh gold.??: http://www.angusmackirk.com/product_pages/highbanker.html

Here are some new "Au Trap river sluices"(elevated high up on legs) that just recently came out. I wonder how that built-on grizzly classifyer does.? (I know dry classifying does not work as good as wet classifying that washes off gold stuck to rocks. But I hate pre-classifying, so this built-on grizzly classifyer looks good and maybe an alternative to the Bazooka river sluice): http://www.angusmackirk.com/product_pages/green-machines.html

I like the looks of the new "Golden Retriever A.T.V." wash plant(also watch the 'ATV Wash Plant' YouTube video on this page): http://www.angusmackirk.com/product_pages/trommel.html

I am also interested in hearing future reports about a new highbanker coming soon from Angus MacKirk called the "Black Angus"(a shovel fed 4 Stage Placer Plant with Fluid Bed Riffles for $1,299) hopefully being the first full production 'fluid bed' high banker on the market. Also the new "Beach Bum" beach box coming soon. Both under the 'High Bankers' heading found near the bottom of the 2nd page here: http://www.angusmackirk.com/product_pages/ProductPricing040212.pdf

I have the Yukon highbanker. Bought it from Shay a little while back. I have not had time to field test it but I hope to try it out soon and plan on posting a full video review.

I did try it for a little while in my backyard hooked up to the garden hose and ran about a half bucket of material I had laying around. It was nowhere near the pressure I needed but this material was classified to 1/4 inch so it actualy worked ok. It is much larger than it looked in the picture. Should be able to move a lot of material in a day with it.
