About This Product
The Top Hat Black Sand Magnet makes quick work of separating magnetite (magnetic black sand) from your gold concentrates. This powerful rare-earth magnet attracts and holds magnetic material, leaving your gold behind clean and ready for final recovery.
Black sand and gold often occur together, and separating them is one of prospecting's eternal challenges. The Top Hat magnet handles the magnetic portion instantly—drag it through your pan and watch the magnetite jump up and cling to the magnet.
The "top hat" design is key: the magnet is encased in a plastic housing that you can remove the magnet from. When you want to release the black sand, simply pull the magnet out of the housing and the material falls away clean. No scraping, no mess.
**How It Works:** 1. Drag magnet through concentrates 2. Magnetite clings to the housing 3. Remove to disposal area 4. Pull magnet from housing 5. Black sand releases cleanly 6. Repeat until concentrates are clean
**What It Removes:** - Magnetite (magnetic black sand) - Iron particles - Some hematite - Metal fragments
**Note:** Not all black sand is magnetic. Use the Blue Bowl for remaining non-magnetic heavies.
