Tin Cassiterite Shaking Table (2D)

Top-down 2D Wilfley-type shaking table: differential riffle creep versus cross-flowing wash water stratifies cassiterite from silicate gangue by specific gravity, with live recovery and grade readouts.

This 2D companion renders the shaking table from directly above and drives it with the real separation mechanism instead of an orbiting camera: an asymmetric-shake riffle-creep model moves dense cassiterite grains lengthwise toward the concentrate launder while cross-flowing wash water sweeps the lighter silicate gangue sideways into the tailings, and a live recovery/grade readout — the two standard metallurgical KPIs — tracks how shake speed, wash water flow, cross-slope and feed grade trade off against each other exactly as they do on a real Wilfley-type deck.
