AZ4AU Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Hello All,I found this little dredge sitting in a wash in the Yukon Territory near Dawson City . In the 46 years of service it only recovered 8 metric tons of Gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) Here is one that I visited a couple weeks ago in Bonanza Idaho. Took the tour from a fellow whose father worked on the dredge when it was in operation. We got to tour the entire inside of the dredge. 32 sluice boxes. It only took three people to operate the dredge and it ran 24 hours a day in three 8 hour shifts. Edited June 28, 2013 by matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
