E-cowlboy Rock Crusher Frit Maker Glass Breaker Ore Crusher Gold Panning Mining Pulverizer Mine prospecting Stone Rock Hound Gold Rush Heavy Duty Steel

Q: Is this too lightweight for crushing limestone or marble into powder or small pellets?

That sounds like a fascinating use of the tool! Crushing granite and quartz to extract gold is a classic method used by prospectors. The process you are describing is known as "ore crushing" or "ore processing." This involves pulverizing rock to free the valuable minerals contained within. It's one of the first steps in gold prospecting or gold mining. Granite and quartz are hard rocks and can contain gold in small, sometimes microscopic particles. Crushing these rocks to powder form would indeed increase the surface area and make it easier to extract the gold. Once you have crushed the rocks into powder, you would typically use a method such as panning or sluicing to separate the gold. This works because gold is denser than most rock minerals and sinks to the bottom. If you're working with quartz and you suspect it may contain gold, another option is to crush the quartz to a fine powder and then do a gravity separation to isolate the gold. This can be followed by the use of chemicals like cyanide or mercury to dissolve and isolate the gold, but these processes should be handled with extreme care due to the hazardous nature of these substances. Remember, always take the necessary safety precautions when handling and operating heavy machinery like a rock crusher, and when dealing with potentially hazardous chemicals.
