Gold cube In Alaska

Hello Mike & Red
I would like to thank you for sending me a Gold Cube for our operation at Porcupine Creek on the set of Gold Rush. I found it to be an indispensable part of our clean up process.

Initally, the others in the crew were very slow to accept it's effectiveness. By the end, they couldn't wait to get the concentrate to the cube. Be prepared for the terminology "Cube it!" I used it repeatedly. I believe skeptics will be convinced of it's huge value in the clean up process once they see it in use on national TV.
Thank you,

Dear Gold Cube,

I have seen new gold recovery products come and go. Heck, I have bought most of them!

I watched your video on the Gold Cube website at lest a half a dozen times back in November. I think by the 4th time, I put my name on the list to purchase one.

Finally this weekend, (Feb 20th) I got my chance to put it to the test. My local chapter of the GPAA was having a "Meet and Greet", with vendors, and members and just people who have an interest in finding gold.

I had brought 2, 5 gallon buckets of dirt with me to run. The dirt came from various places and I had already screened the buckets down to between -10 and 20 mesh. I turned on the water and started slowly feeding dirt onto the slick plate. It didn't take long before someone looked into the top viewing hold and commented, "You've got gold!" Sure enough, there was gold starting to get caught in the vortex matting!

I got about a 1/3 of the way through the second bucket and I got a little nervous about not cleaning up. So I stopped and started to break down the plates. The first separator plate was loaded with gold! The people watching were pointing out the pieces that were caught in the vortex matting. The first separator plate held the most gold. The second was a lot less, and the third plate held 2 small peices. I cleaned all the plates out in the bucket of water and set the Gold Cube back up. I finished running the last 2/3rds of the buckets. This went faster, as I was more confident about running the cons. I ended up with about 8 cups of cons when I finished clean up. I would have ended up with less, but my bilge pump was not in an ideal location and would build up with dirt.

Our chapter had a trough set up so people could practice panning. (Very helpful to the new comers.) I rolled over and scooped up about a cup and started panning it out. (Until that day, I have never had a crowd to watch me pan!) I started to classify that first cup. I scooped up some water, classified, repeated and then tilted the pan back to see if the Gold Cube had captured any gold. There was a collective "Ah" from my crowd. There in my pan, staring back at all of us, were about 25 good sized flakes and pickers! I worked that down as far as I could without losing any gold, then repeated the process with the rest of the cons I recovered from the Gold Cube. I worked the 8 cups down to one. Every pan full was the same thing!

Prior to cleaning up and leaving for the day, I did a single pan of dirt that was run through the Gold cube. There was nothing, not even a spec! I felt that the Gold Cube captured the gold from those 2 buckets so completely, that I dumped the dirt out and left it. I brought home the cup of cons and got out my finishing pan. I have never worked so carefully for gold! Bottom line was, I ended up with 5.6 grams of gold in well over 100+ flakes and small pickers! Some of which were so tiny, that I couldn't pick them up with a pair of tweezers! I had dry classified dirt to between -10 to 20 prior to running so I didn't expect to find anything tiny!

You have an amazing product! So much so, if you know anyone who wants to buy a second hand spiral wheel or blue bowl, send them my way. I think they are going to be collecting dust in my garage!

Good Luck!
Sincerely,
Brian Herbstreit

Red & Mike
I work a tailing pile in Nevada desert, it has no large gold but plenty of 100 & 200 mesh flour gold. I bring at least 300 lbs. a trip home (classified to 20 mesh) and have run every way you can run it & the Gold Cube is absolutely the best recovering fine gold machine on the market. I had heard of Vortex Mat a couple of years ago, but i now know it's the best. After at least a ton of material, I re-circulate 70 gallons in a cattle trough & change water at about 300 lbs. I use a home made filter & surfactant (plenty of "Totally Awesome"). Your Machine is such a breeze to use and a gold getter of the 1st degree. People think I'm nuts for trying to get this gold, but i look at it this way..."Gold is Gold". Thanks for the best fine gold machine i have ever used! Your Friend,
