Welcome to Keene Engineering! The world leader in innovative portable mining and prospecting equipment. Family owned and operated since 1950.
Rain, especially heavy rainfall or flooding, can “bring gold back” because it acts as a natural force that loosens and washes gold particles from the riverbanks and bedrock in mountainous areas, carrying them downstream where they can be deposited in more accessible locations for prospectors to find; essentially replenishing gold deposits in rivers after erosion from previous weather events.
When heavy rain occurs, the rushing water erodes the soil and rock along riverbeds, dislodging gold particles that were previously embedded in the sediment.
Since gold is a heavy metal, it tends to settle to the bottom of the riverbed, getting caught in crevices and behind rocks where water flow slows down.
Large flood events can significantly increase the amount of gold transported downstream, further replenishing gold deposits in certain areas.
So gear up and get ready for gold season!
You’ve GoT This!
There is so much more to reclamation dredging than just hunting for gold! Recent flooding has created a demand for cleaning out waterways, clearing out ponds, and dams, clearing boat slips and so much more! Ready to learn more? Read on!

WHAT’S HAPPENING…
No Bullshit Prospecting on YouTube @NoBSProsspecting. Cool picture looks so refreshing.
Prospecting or selling a gold sluice?
I'd be running more water through it
There is never a dull moment here at Keene. I am building a custom 8"/10" Sluice box with a jet and 6" x 3" x 3" splitter.
Awesome Equipment!
That’s a Monster💪💪💪
Great equipment
My guess is Alaska or Yukon
Did your client happen to mention what part of the world they intend to use this?
6’’ is 6inches 6’ Is 6 feet
That is crazy cool!
Hii
Hi
This is a quick video on the latch we have used for over 4 decades. We use this on our larger power jets quick coupling larger sluice boxes, and more. No one in the world has built a quality latch like this. So we went ahead and built it ourselves. All stainless construction heat-treated material. I have to finish a 10" dredge sluice box next week; we need these to finish the project.
We do what we have to do to make things work. Or not, in some cases
This is some cold water.
Just curious where you’re at and how much you pay for the permit to run it
Where's this at
El agua está bastante fría pero no importa porque usan trajes de neopreno bastante gruesos y además cuestan con agua caliente de su propia draga asta yo trabajaría asi
Hi
We are working on 8" / 10" dredge sluice box. I thought you might get a kick our off seeing how it goes together. We should be done next week. 36" wide sluice box by 12' with 6" x 3" x 3" x 3" spliter. Also building a 8" oversized power jet with 3 x 3" jet logs reinforced. We built a lot of custom products for the mining community.
Thanks for the peek at your work.Looks good!
wish I was there.. I love building stuff..
Very nice!!
Love not seeing that dreadful dream mat.
Thank you for my pond dredge! It works better than expected. Cleaned all of the muck that was 5 feet deep.
Beautiful!! Can’t wait to be cleaning it out in a few months!!
Mike Grahn This is our sluice and dredge for Nome.
I have a question about my order
Can’t wait for my new drywasher to be built. 😂 id get a kick out of that. Us Arizonans don’t care about no dredge we have no water. 💦
8"/10" y'all understand. " means inches right. ' means foot
Nice
This is a typical day around Keene Engineering. New gravel pump stations, 4" gold dredge with sump. 3" dredge on legs. A new 10" dredge sluice box building, a custom double-sided jet used by the US Navy for reclamation projects, and a custom 8" power jet with triple jet logs. A custom clutch system for the 40 HP Vanguard engine. Lots of work on the new DW3, Plus some other fun projects. Never a dull moment around here.
Best of the best!
Dream job!
Amazing facility, thanks for making so many products!
Use only the best here in new Zealand
Dreading is illegal in California!
Here are some updates on the DW3. We had a great trip, found some good gold and the machined worked was great. Most people do not fully understand Patrick's and my mentality. We always push the extreme, tried several new things that we had not done before, and learned a lot. Not everything we tried worked as we hoped; however, next time out, we are hoping for perfection. The new cross-link poly hopper and bodies worked amazingly well. We have to go out again for another test to check on the latest changes we are settling on.
Tried contacting Keene Engineering, Inc. multiple times by email and phone and no returned emails or calls. Like to purchase a backpack dredge. How do I go about getting ahold of someone since I’ve had no luck?? Thanks
Nice to see you guys working together, out there. Let the good times roll 🍀
The dog’s name is dusty.
Great to see you guys out there. I miss it. New rig looks Great!
Brilliant!
use a real shovel boys 😆 not a hand spade
Hey look at shovel for Mike! Looks pretty good so far
Good looking machine . Love seeing the improvements, can't wait to see the end results. Thanks for the videos
Yes I understand. It’s not how it works but how well it works.
Got a couple questions. First what is good gold. Cuz I'm pretty sure I've never come across any bad gold. Anyway sorry bad joke.The other question is when do you think it will be on the market. I am looking to get a new Puffer and I would like to purchase this one. Just kind of wondering about an eta.
You going to show the Yield after Cleanup?
Looking good guys! Great R&D and keeping it all real for us to watch and learn. This is going to be a great product. I have many memories heaving my gas blower along with spare gas and that long damn hose, around everywhere. -Man those memories were great but having all that stuff along the way to set up constantly made me less mobile. This machine will be the perfect companion to real prospecting.
Would you be willing after one days work to take all the tailings from the dry washer home and run them through a recirculating highbanker to see how much gold you did lose? I know dry washers lose a lot, just interested in seeing the difference, if you are on a high grade pay streak. 😀
