Sand and gravel can be separated by simple screening - sifting through a screen that will allow the finer sand particles to pass through, while retaining the larger gravel particles on the screen.
Sand and gravel are dug out of open quarries on the surface.

The gravel and sand filter out smaller particles from the water
You could use a magnet to separate the iron fillings from the mixture, as iron is magnetic while the other substances are not. Next, you could use water to dissolve the salt, allowing you to separate it from the sand and gravel mixture. Finally, you could use a sieve to separate the remaining sand and gravel mixture based on particle size.
You run the sand and gravel over different size screens depending on how many sizes you wish to sort the gravel into. In most large gravel pits, a deposit is sucked up with a pump (with water) through metal pipe up to a steel tower.Using gravity the sand,small pea gravel and larger gravels are separated. In most gravel pits the water turns green over time because of the Iron in the deposits.
Sand and gravel can be separated by sifting them through a mesh, that will allow the sand to fall through, but will hold back the gravel.
One method to separate sand and gravel is using a sieve or screen with appropriately sized openings. The mixture can be poured onto the sieve and shaken to allow the smaller sand particles to fall through while the larger gravel particles remain on top.

SAND SAND
Gravel and sand mixture is a combination of small stones (gravel) and fine particles (sand). It is commonly used in construction and landscaping for tasks such as paving, drainage, and backfilling. The mixture provides stable support while allowing water to pass through easily.

Gravel is typically heavier than sand, and therefore gravel would be heavier than both clay and sand. This is because gravel consists of larger-sized particles and has a higher density compared to clay and sand.
No. Sand and gravel are two different terms for describing sediment size. Gravel is a size up from sand.
