Gold-Mining Manufacturing
  
Alexey I. Borovkov

The AVI's illustrate the pickup cone (centrifugal concentrator) used in the gold-mining industry for extraction of the gold from the milled rock.   The construction is very compact (mass of the transportable devise is about 30kg) and automatic.  In the non-interuptable regime the production rate of the device is 3-5 tons per hour.  The quantity of the extracted gold reaches 99% for the coarse particles and 50% for fine.
