#Small gold dredges
6 messages in this thread
Anybody knows where I can buy small dredges for gold prospecting?
Maybe names of some magazines about gold prospecting where I can find this
information?

Keene Engineering (818) 993-0411 is the largest manufacturer of gold dredges. A
couple others that come to mind are Gold King (602) 278-1266 and American Gold
Dredge Mfg.
(208) 628-3932.
Gold Prospector Magazine – PO Box 507, Bonsall, CA 92003 and Gold & Treasure
Hunter – PO Box 47, Happy Camp, CA 96039 are two good magazines.
If you tell me where you live, I may be able to find a Keen dealer near you.
Hope this helps

Hi, Bill —
Thank you for your help. I was just looking for address of Keene Engineering. I
found in a book "How and Where to Prospect for Gold" by Verne H. Ballantyne a
detailed description of the small dredge from Keene Eng. Co. but without any
address. So, I really appreciate your help. I live in Chicago. It will be great
if you find a Keen dealer near to Chicagoland.

The closest Keene dealer I can find is:
Whites of the Great Lakes
6626 Monroe St Suite C
Sylvania, OH 43560
(419) 885-7191
I doubt if they stock dredges but they probably can order them. I use a Keene
highbanker which uses the same engine as their 2" dredge and I am very happy
with it.

Hi, Igor–
The April Lapidary Journal, which includes a products/services guide each
year, this year lists only Research Unlimited, P.O. Box 448, Fremont, Nebraska
68025, phone (402) 721-8588.
Steve Ryland of Cal-Gold, CompuServe [72345,366], can likely either sell you
one or steer you to sellers. He should know the magazines you are after.

Hi, Doug —
Thank you for help. I'll try your address. Also I recieved enough information
from Bill to start with.
It's a great pleasure to use the Science/Geology Forum. It's the best way to
find answers on my questions. Thank you for support, Doug.
