Gravity Concentration Test. If enough ore is available, a laboratory table may be used. For small lots of ore a gold pan or a small laboratory jig such as the mineral jig is convenient and gives reasonably good results. Sufficient concentrate should be prepared so that the various methods of treatment as already noted can be tried.
