Keene Super Sucker A23 – Hand-Held Suction Dredge for Gold Prospecting

Recover Gold-Bearing Material from Bedrock Cracks and Underwater Crevices

The Keene Super Sucker A23 is a manually operated suction dredge designed to recover gravel, sand and gold-bearing material from underwater cracks and hard-to-reach bedrock crevices.

Its large hand-operated vacuum chamber creates powerful suction without requiring an engine, pump, battery or fuel. The narrow nozzle reaches into areas that are difficult to clean with a shovel or scoop, making the Super Sucker useful for gold sniping, crevicing and sampling promising deposits.

Basic Use

Place the nozzle near the gold-bearing material and pull the plunger to create suction. Recover the captured material into a bucket, classifier or gold pan for careful processing. Avoid forcing rocks larger than the nozzle opening into the unit.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Rinse the chamber, nozzle and plunger assembly thoroughly after each use. Remove trapped sand and small stones before storage because abrasive material can wear the internal seals and reduce suction performance. Inspect the plunger and seals regularly for damage.

Definitions and regulations for hand-operated suction devices vary by location. Always verify current local, state and federal prospecting rules before using this tool in a stream, river or other public waterway. Obtain permission before entering or prospecting on private property.
