Organizations to join

We recommend membership in the following mining and prospecting organizations both to learn about mining and prospecting but also to help fight for the freedom to mine. Goldhounds of the Motherlode, Western Mining Alliance, both of which have websites, and Western Mining and Industry Council, which meets the first Wednesday of every month at 7 pm in the Holbrooke Hotel in Grass Valley. The mine you save may be your own.

We also recommend membership in Public Lands for the People and the Western Mining Alliance. See our links page for contacting these two organizations.

Welcome to Lost Sierra Mining Co.'s website, howlandflat.com. We are an authorized dealer for Hydro-Force dry land suction nozzles, serving the greater Sacramento and Mother Lode regions of California. We welcome orders from other states and nations as well.

We offer Hydro-Force dry land suction nozzles for small miners and prospectors. The Hydro-Force nozzle is commonly attached to the suction and pressure hoses of a high banker or power sluice. The nozzle, patent pending, shoots water out the nozzle gravel intake, then sucks up gravel and water and sends it to your sluice. The nozzle has a valve on it which can eject water out the front of the nozzle to create a puddle of water which is then sucked up. Some call this booming. The water ejection is user variable by valve and also functions to loosen up gravels. When water is scarce this is the method to use. In effect, you can run your dredge on dry land. Most customers already have either a dredge or a high banker (power sluice) which has an engine/pump unit and sluice.Just add a Hydro-Force nozzle and you're good to go.

For some users the Hydro-Force may be a solution for the dredge moratorium in California. It is an excellent tool for use in tertiary channel mine pits and for working the high benches.

We keep nozzles in stock and usually have the size you want ready for delivery or shipment.

together. We also offer pin lug couplersIn addition, we offer the lowest prices we know of on gold dredging suction and pressure hoses. Our dredging suction hoses are designed for gold mining and dredging. Both pressure and suction hoses have high flexibility, high PSI ratings and light weight. They are made for industrial use. We do not recommend "lay-flat" type water hose as performance will be degraded. Other gold prospecting equipment and supplies we offer include Banjo couplers and hose connectors, which are two different way to connect two lengths of hose together. The Banjo coupler is a brand name for a cam and groove connector. The cam and groove hose connector is becoming the most popular, easiest, and fastest way to connect hose sections , foot valves and hose connectors, those hard to find pin lug wrenches to make screwing couplers together easy.

We plan to add products from time-to-time so check in with us to see what's new. Our email is lostsierra@yahoo.com, phone 916-987-9422.
