The preferable embodiment ofniy invention will be hereinafterdescribedand illus trated in the drawings appended hereto, and
then definitely claimed at theend hereof.
In the aforesaid drawings which illustrate the preferable, but not necessary, em-
bodiment of my separatingmachine:

the use ofscreens, jigs, and l V l with the shaft 12.
In operation, the material s delivered to the fir'st of the hoppers 16 and after passin under the spreading cone therein passes out through the bottom of the hopper and onto the large rotatable cone 20, and proceeds down the cone as the latter rotates. As the material passes down the cone it begins to separate and by the time it reaches the-lower edge of the cone the ore is separated from the tailings. the ore passing inside of the rim 24: while the tailings pass over saidrim and finally through the tailings outlet, while the ore, caught by the rim 24, will pass under the adjustable cone and be propelled inward and upward by means of the rotatable vanes for wings 30 until the ore is compelled to pass through the fiume 34. If the separation in one machine is not sufficientlyffiiie, the outlet directs the tailings into the ho 'Jper of a second separator where the same operation will be repeated only with greater fineness. v
From the foregoing and accompanying drawings, it will be seen that I have invented a very simple ore separator by which I am enabled 'to dispense with any screens, jigs or sludge tables and yet have produced a separator so simple and compact that ordinary attendants can take care of the same, even to the 'e'xtent'of adjusting and repairing it.
It will be obvious that changes be 'made in the form and construction of my invention without departing from thespirit thereof and that thedrawings show the preferable, but not necessary, embodiment, so that reference should be made to the accompanying claims in order to determine the scope of the invention. a V,

the combination ,Of a rotatable cone adapted to receive the material to be treated and permit 'it to gravitate therefrom, and collecting devices comprising receptacles divided by a circumferential rim for ledge, the latter extending upwardly and -just outside of the bottom edge 'of the said cone, whereby the heavy material passes downward by gravity and slides ofi' 'of said Come inside of said rim or ledge and into the inside receptacle and the tailin'gs passover said rimor ledge into the receptacle outside of said cone.
2. In a device of-the character described,
the combination of a receptacle for receiving the material to be treated, a cone receiving the material fromsaid receptacle, and permittingit to pass downward'overthe surface of the cone, as the saidcone revolves, whereby the ore is separated from the tailings, and
' a receptacle located under said cone. and
having a rim extending upwardly and just outside of the lower edge of the cone, the tailings passing over the saidrim and the ore passing down between the rim [and the edge of the cone, as the latter rotates into the 'receptacleundersaidcone. he '3; In a device of the character described,
