I was at Cache Creek, CO. this last summer and was watching guys fill 5 gal. buckets full of material and lift it out of the 4-5 foot hole they were digging and standing in.
I've been to the BLM web site and although limitations are placed on hp and suction and other things... I've never read or seen anything prohibiting using a conveyor to move material to the sluice.
Perhaps someone has already been down this road and found it wasn't feasible. Just checking.

The cost of running an engine eats into my profits.
It'd be real easy to dump several hundred dollars into a project and then, ya gotta buy gas and oil too.
Besides, I hate all the noise. LOL
