Amazing what you can find on Ebay

I have just found seven banks of Denver flotation cells and twenty two shaking tables for sale at Mount Wellington.

(Haven't got a clue how to put a link up and life's too short to find out).

For only £96.500 you could have his yacht as well, doubt it would fit on the Carnon river tho' 😉

2nd that! possibly the start is a bit high.....usual procedure for stuff thats be sat for so long/missing lots of bits is to start at metal scrap value.
someones going to have fun getting them down a large telehandler would do..on a still day!

Gosh! What a total surprise!

I don't imagine that anyone has seriously lost their shirt in this process though.

He may have the table tops, but it doesn't look like the gearbox/frame is there.

last tables installed at Tolgus was in the late 70s i have got a 3 cell flotation bank but didnt come from welly ,the table decks aint worth much they would need recovering at a least and that is a pain in the ass (i know ive done some) the gear boxes are the expensive bit and you can buy a whole new table anyway (holman wilfry made up by crofty)
just had a look at the pics the decks are twisted and the cells are scrap the metal will be so thin! same water as jane !!

Fascinating to see that people who bought that item also bought sets of Vietnam postage stamps and butterfly miniatures, this obviously shows a diversity of interests.

A bit like when a search on say dynamite would produce "buy and sell dynamite on eBay"

Sorry Roy, not interested, perhaps Drew's might be 😮

Would they even work, I'm sure it would be cheaper and more effective to purchase new !

For whats planned I don't think they will be big enough.

If it can't be grown it has to be mined.

i remember seeing those tables they are indeed knackered ,there's no head motion gearboxes or motors for them, again with the denvers no motors and thin as tinsel lol,i do remember also tho that most of the tube press for dewatering the concentrate seemed there almost complete , anyway what happened to all the kit from welly most of it was a different design to janes equipment so i know it didnt get used there ,where did it end up ?
