Kraken Mat

Kraken Mat Sluice Mat - Staggered Height Riffle Gold Recovery System

Another Samuel Morgan design.   Unleash the legendary power of the Kraken Mat, a revolutionary sluice mat featuring an innovative staggered height riffle design that creates multiple capture zones for maximum gold retention. With riffles of varying heights strategically positioned throughout the mat, this advanced recovery system traps gold particles of all sizes with exceptional efficiency. Like the mythical Kraken's relentless grip, no gold escapes this mat.

Staggered Height Recovery Features

• Staggered Height Riffle Design - Riffles of varying heights create multiple depth zones, each optimized for capturing different gold particle sizes from fine flour gold to chunky nuggets
• Multi-Level Vortex Zones - Different riffle heights create varying vortex strengths and low-pressure areas, ensuring gold particles of all weights find a capture zone
• Progressive Gold Capture - Taller riffles catch larger gold and create initial classification, while shorter riffles trap fine particles in secondary capture zones
• High-Visibility Green Construction - Durable green material makes gold spotting easy during cleanup while providing exceptional flexibility and longevity
• Professional-Grade Materials - Heavy-duty construction withstands aggressive water flow, rocky material, and continuous use season after season
• Optimized Flow Dynamics - Staggered heights create varied water flow patterns that maximize gold retention while efficiently washing away lighter materials
• Flexible Yet Durable - Maintains riffle integrity under high flow while staying flexible enough for easy cleanup and gold extraction
• Universal Compatibility - Designed to fit standard sluice boxes and can be trimmed to custom sizes for high bankers and specialized setups

The Kraken Staggered Height Advantage

What makes the Kraken Mat truly legendary is its staggered height riffle system that creates multiple capture zones throughout the mat surface. Traditional mats use uniform riffle heights, which means they're optimized for one gold size but may miss others. The Kraken's varying riffle heights solve this problem—taller riffles create deep vortex zones perfect for trapping larger gold particles and black sand, while shorter riffles create shallower zones that excel at capturing fine flour gold. As material flows across the mat, gold particles naturally settle into the riffle height that matches their size and weight, ensuring comprehensive recovery across all gold types. The result is a multi-level capture system that adapts to whatever gold comes through your sluice.

Perfect For

Serious prospectors who work diverse deposits with varying gold sizes, high-volume operators running river sluices or high bankers who need to capture everything from flour gold to nuggets, miners working locations with mixed gold types where single-height riffles miss particles, and professional operations where comprehensive gold recovery across all particle sizes directly impacts profitability. Whether you're processing fine flour gold in black sand or hunting for nuggets in coarse gravel, the Kraken Mat's staggered height system captures it all.

Ideal Applications

Perfect for deposits with mixed gold sizes where you need to capture fine and coarse gold simultaneously, high-flow conditions where different riffle heights provide multiple chances to trap gold, fine gold deposits where the shorter riffles excel at capturing flour gold, nugget hunting where taller riffles create deep capture zones, and any situation where you refuse to leave gold behind. The staggered height design means every gold particle finds its perfect capture zone.
