6x32 Micro/Mini Dredge Sluice Dream Mat - Upgrade Kit for Crux Gold Trek Ultralight Backpack Highbankers
Transform Your Crux Backpack Highbanker into a Fine Gold Magnet
Upgrade your 6-inch highbanker system (compatible with Gold Trek/Crux models) with the ultimate recovery combination. The 6x32 Crux Micro/Mini Dredge Sluice Dream Mat replaces standard riffles with advanced fluid dynamics, combining two of our top-performing profiles into one seamless, high-efficiency sluice mat.
By pairing the precision of the Micro Dredge with the volume-handling capabilities of the Mini Dredge, this kit turns your portable setup into a professional-grade recovery system.
The "Power Couple" Design: Two Stages of Recovery
This 32-inch mat is split into two distinct 16-inch zones, engineered to maximize gold retention from the moment paydirt hits the box until it exits.
Stage 1: The Indicator (Top 16" - Micro Dredge)
The first half of the mat features our Micro Dredge profile. This is your first line of defense and acts as an immediate indicator mat.
-
Hydro-Cyclone Power: The complex profile creates a vortex action so intense that it actively separates material. The profile spins material to process it, but we've engineered it to ensure the spin is controlled for maximum retention.
-
Unmatched Sensitivity: Designed to capture the finest gold that other mats miss.
-
Increased Capacity: Features a new profile with over 2x the holding capacity for gold compared to previous generations.
-
Feed with Confidence: Capable of handling increased feed rates, ensuring that even when you are shoveling hard, the mat is processing efficiently.
Stage 2: The Workhorse (Bottom 16" - Mini Dredge)
The second half transitions into the Mini-Dredge profile, specifically designed for high-flow and high-yield recovery.
-
High-Flow Mastery: Optimized to handle the water velocity typical of backpack highbankers, ensuring you don't lose gold due to washout.
-
Forgiving Nature: Whether your pitch is steep or your flow is aggressive, this profile remains forgiving, maintaining active exchange zones without scouring out the gold.
-
Scrub & Capture: Designed to process heavier loads and larger material that passes the first stage, ensuring that elusive flake gold is trapped before it can escape. Will catch easily nuggets up to 3/8"
Why Upgrade to Dream Mat?
Standard riffles and carpet systems rely on mechanical friction. The Dream Mat utilizes Low-Energy Vortex Technology. This scientific approach uses the water's own energy to exchange heavy gold for lighter sands continuously.
-
Scientific Recovery: Our mats use physics, not just friction. The fluid dynamics can be described as maximizing the settling velocity of gold particles while maintaining enough turbulence to scour low-density silica.
-
Less Concentrates: One of the biggest advantages of gold prospecting with Dream Mat is the reduction in clean-up time. The mat self-cleans light material, leaving you with significantly fewer concentrates to process at the end of the day.
-
Instant Feedback: See your gold instantly in the top Micro Dredge section. No more wondering if you are on the gold until clean-up time.
Technical Specifications
-
Dimensions: 6" Width x 32" Length.
-
Composition: High-quality polyurethane (Dream Mat proprietary blend).
-
Compatibility: Designed as a direct drop-in replacement for 6" wide backpack highbankers, including Gold Trek and Crux systems.
-
Included: 1x Combo Mat (16" Micro Dredge fused with 16" Mini Dredge).
Ideal For:
-
Gold Mining enthusiasts upgrading their Gold Trek Lite or Pro systems.
-
Prospectors working in areas with extremely fine "flour" gold.
-
Users who want to run their highbanker or sluice box faster without fear of losses.
Stop losing gold to old technology. Upgrade your rig with the 6x32 Crux Micro/Mini Dredge Upgrade Kit and experience the confidence of Dream Mat recovery.
