Here is a primitive recirculating setup I threw together in my backyard. It worked well enough, but could use a better filter system.

you really need to disperse the water more evenly at the feed end of your sluice to keep its wave action more uniform throughout the sluice. i think youll have better results with the finer gold if you do that.
