Viking

The Viking is a Dense Media Separator, used to separate metalliferous ores from waste.  It separates ores based on their density differential.  The version of the Viking produced by Gekko Systems is primarily used as a testing unit.  The Viking separates between dis-similar SG material in the same way as the InLine Pressure Jig (IPJ), therefore it is an ideal method for testing the separation characteristic of an ore sample.

The Viking uses water mixed with Ferro Silicon, increasing the slurry density, creating, a dense media.  The density of the water and Ferro Silicon mixture can be set by varying the percentage of Ferro Silicon to water.
