Mining olan 270 4
Started by acrampton1@hotmail.com
I have recently staked a claim now it is time to put together a working plan. The claim is in NM along an arroyo. I understand about mapping the roads and structures utility pole etc. can the are to be worked is less than 5 acres. Is there a way to word my plan so I do not have to put up a huge bond to dig holes and prove the claim has enough gold. I am good with a pick and shovel but I need to move more dirt than that to really evaluate the whole claim. So I will need an excavator .

Gold in New York State 27096 17
Started by ScooterMcGavin
I was travelling across country during my gap year before heading to college. I rockhounded a little bit and was stopping into a shop to buy a rock hammer and saw a pan sitting there. At that moment I was hooked, the idea of pulling gold out of the ground with my own hands and work is something i will never tire of. I went to the Libby Creek Recreational Gold panning area and spent the next 2.5 weeks on and off working and meeting new people, everyone had something to teach and I loved every min...

So, being new, I have been panning pay dirt over and over for practice. Now that I have a gram of gold in a vial of water, what is the best way to dry the gold so it can be weighed I have not found any videos on that phase.

Brady, I seen your Claim report posted for Bahde 12,13,14. and you will have better luck posting your questions here than in the Claim Report area. Plus you will have more of us seeing it and if you add some more details too of what type of prospecting your going to be doing and what claims your interested in that will be helpful too. Hopefully you see this and post your questions here or on one of the other areas listed. You'll get the feed back your looking for that will help you out. I've spe...

Dry washing near Randsburg 284 3
Started by cgtorina@gmail.com
Hello all new guy here was considering dry washing near Ransburg California. Tried using the BLM MRLS maps to ensure I don’t go on someone’s claim.. for me it has not been user-friendly and was wondering if someone knows of a place or how to use the MLRS system. Every time I touch the map and move it it jumps to another location/state. If someone’s considering going out this weekend let me know if you would like an extra shoveler.

Planning a road trip, hoping to leave in a week. I am only 2wd capable with a small camper. I can only pan a crevice at this time, but hope to expand on that. I am looking to spend some time at the Greyback claim in NM and other claims near Wickenburg, AZ, then probably check out Quartzite, AZ. From that point I will checkout other options for my trip. I hope to reach Greyback by 01/20/21. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Would also like to meet other members to help show me the ropes...

My son and I are going out to Rye Patch in a couple of months. My question is this. Can someone tell me basically how far west of the reservoir we need to drive or hike to get to an area where we would have a fair chance of finding a couple of small nuggets. We have two machines a Fisher gold bug 2 and a MineLab Equinox 800 so they will find really small pieces but I would love a little direction please. Thanks, Ron
