Knelson concentrator

A Knelson concentrator is a device used in mining to separate valuable minerals, like gold, from other materials. It uses a combination of water flow, rotation, and gravity to create a centrifugal force that pushes heavier particles to the center and bottom. As lighter waste material washes away, the dense, valuable particles become concentrated in the machine’s core. This allows for efficient recovery of metals with minimal loss, making it a vital tool in mineral processing operations, especially where fine particles and high recovery rates are required.
