The 6" x 30" Transformer Sluice: The Compact Foundation for Gold Recovery
Start your gold prospecting adventures with the ultimate packable foundation. The new 6" x 30" sluice body is the agile heart of the revolutionary Transformer System. Engineered for the modern prospector who demands extreme portability without sacrificing the legendary recovery rates of Dream Mat technology.
One Sluice Box, Endless Possibilities
Why buy separate pieces of gear for every trip? The 6" x 30" sluice box isn't just a standalone tool; it is the starting point for your perfect, lightweight gold recovery machine.
Built from tough, lightweight aluminum and powered by the advanced 6" x 22.5" Dream Mat, this system is designed to go where other sluices can't. Whether you are hiking into remote canyons or running a cleanup in your garage, this modular system grows with your needs.
