Mineralight

Mineralight was developed to fill the need for a simple method of identifying those substances which respond or “fluoresce” when subjected to ultraviolet light. In the field of mineralogy, some 200 minerals are known to have this property of fluoresence. Early day prospectors, while searching for gold, discarded valuable minerals, such as scheelite; being unable to recognize them by ordinary field methods. The modern prospector does not pass by these opportunities, since

Laboratory Mercury Separator 

Laboratory Mercury Separator is extensively used to separate floured mercury or amalgam from the tailings of any amalgamating unit. Pulp is fed into the tube through the funnel in the top, and water is forced in at the lower part of the tube, creating a sufficient up-current to overflow the sands out of the discharge outlet near the top. Mercury
