Definition
To separate particles or materials of different sizes or densities using flowing liquid or air currents.
Etymology
From Latin 'elutriare' (from 'e-' meaning out + 'lutum' meaning mud), originally describing the washing away of lighter particles from heavier sediments in water.
Kelly Says
Elutriation was used for thousands of years in gold panning—gravity and flowing water naturally separated the heavy gold from lighter sediment, making it one of humanity's oldest separation techniques.
