text: Modern applications of the Wilfley table (and other wet shaking tables) are predominantly observed in the following roles:
  # Laboratories. Small shaking tables are an excellent tool for see if a material will be responsive to gravity separation techniques
  # Gold rooms. Wilfley tables typically act as rougher tables on gravity gold concentrate ahead final concentration methods (e.g. panning)
  # High value heavy mineral concentrate cleaners.  In mining, the vast majority of Wilfley-type tables are installed globally to concentrate (e.g.) tin, tungsten, tantalum, niobium, zircon, rutile, leucoxene, xenotime, monazite
  # Zircon finishing table – a specialist application
  Tables are now also being used in the recycling of electronic scrap to recover precious metals.
