Method and apparatus for uniformly diffusing mineral suspension fluid

Claim 1

THE METHOD OF SEPARATING MINERALS OF DIFFERENT SPECIFIC GRAVITY WHICH CONSISTS OF THE STEPS OF SUSPENDING A DOWNWARDLY SLOPING MINERAL BED BY SUPPLYING A FLUID UNDER PRESSURE UPWARDLY THERETHROUGH FOR THE FULL LENGTH OF THE BED TO MOVE THE MINERAL BED DOWNWARDLY AND STRATIFY THE SAME, SEPARATING THE STRATIFIED MINERALS ADJACENT THE LOWER END OF THE MINERAL BED, PROVIDING A SUBSTANTIALLY FULL MARBLE PACK TO SUPPLY A MAZE PATTERN TO UNIFORMLY DIFFUSE THE FLUID UNDER PRESSURE BEFORE IT FLOWS UPWARDLY THROUGH THE MINERAL BED, AND DIRECTLY ENGAGING SELECTED OF THE MARBLES IN THE PACK TO DIRECTLY DISPLACE ALL THE MARBLES IN THE PACK TO AGITATE THE MAZE PATTERN TO MAINTAIN A UNIFORM DIFFUSION OF THE UPWARDLY FLOWING FLUID UNDER PRESSURE AND TO PRECIPITATE THEREFROM FOREIGN PARTICLES THAT WOULD DISRUPT THE UNIFORMITY OF THE DIFFUSION OF THE UPWARD FLUID FLOWING UNDER PRESSURE SUPPLIED TO THE MINERAL BED.
