Referring now to Figures 2 to 6, each electrode plate comprises a rectangular body of insulating material formed with a plurality of inclined, generally circular grooves 32, the ends of adjacent grooves being connected by semi-circular elbow conduits 33 embedded in the plate body. Communicating with the top groove is an inlet conduit 34 embedded in said body and communicating with the end of the bottom groove is an outlet conduit 35 similarly embedded. Secured to the f ace of the plate are a plurality of spaced vertical scraper bars 36 of` insulating material which traverse the respective inclined grooves 32 and which have blade-like projections 36 extending transversely across the upper portions of said grooves in the manner shown most clearly in Figure 6. From Figure 4, it will be seen that the grooves 32 have a relatively high lower lip 31 which prevents liquid from escaping from the grooves as it iiows downwardly therein.
Designated at 38 is an electrode which projects into the too groove 32A adjacent the inlet conduit 34. Electrode 38 is connected to one ter-n minal of a suitable source of high potential electricity such as an electrostatic machine or its equivalent. The other terminal of said source is connected to the electrode 3 3 carried by the Opposing plate member Designated at 3.9 and 39 are respective mercury reservoirs of insulating material mounted on supporting brackets 40 and 4 0 secured to the side walls. of housing I I. The reservoirs are connected through respective control valves V4I 4I and iiexible conduits 42 and 42' to the inlet conduits 34 of the electrode plates 3| and 3l. The outlet conduits 3 5 of said plates are connected by respective conduits 43 and 43' to a mercury still. Designated at 44 and 4 4' supply conduits leading from the still and are ranged tc supply distilled mercury to the respective tanks 3 9 and 3 9'.
Designated at 45 is a ,discharge conveyor belt positioned below the electrode plates 3I, 3|' and arranged to convey waste material passing do wardiy between the plates out of housing I to a suitable discharge point.
In operation, gold bearing screened sand is deposited into hopper I3 by conveyor belt 2| and passes through the spout I4, where it is dried by the action of heater coil I5. falls between the plates 3I and 3l and is subjected to a high electrical potential between the mercury streams flowing in the grooves 32 of the two plates 3l and 3l'. The particles of material are attracted to the mercury with sufficient velocity to impart relatively high momentum to the heavier gold particles. The gold particles therefore acquire enough momentum to overcome the surface tension of the mercury and to penetrate therein.- The mercury surface becomes covered with particles of dust which are scraped off by the scraper bars 36 asfthe mercury flows past said bars. The waste material drops down between the plates to the discharge conveyor belt and is carried' off thereby. The gold is carried off by the mercury and is recovered at the still. The distilled mercury is returned to tanks 39 and 39 through the supply conduits 44, 44'.

Referring now to Figures 7 and 8, the ore hopper is designated at 46, plurality of discharge spouts 41. The spouts are in close proximity to a heating winding 48 which dries the material passing throughthe spouts. Designated at 49 are spaced vertical electrode plates, each spout 41 being positioned so as to discharge ore material between a pair of adjacent plates.
