Seeking experience 502 0
Started by jay16910@gmail.com
Hey guys! I'm curious if there is anybody else from rock springs, green river WY or close enough to go out with. I'm 100 new to this but super excited to learn. You can only watch so many videos and read so many books before it's time to just go do it. I would love to find somebody that would let me tag along with them to show me the ropes and throw some experience my way.

Coker Creek 746 0
Started by postalpotter@gmail.com
Living in New Orleans the closest places for me to prospect are AL, GA., TN., I did some panning in NC. earlier this year and found a little.

The articles were written in 2019 and the claim is not listed in the 21 Mining Guide so I am assuming that the GPAA no longer has the claim. I was wondering why and if it is not in private hands might I get the coordinates so I could check out the l...

Two Goldbug2’s For Sale $600.00 I’ll pay for shipping. I’m wanting to sale my two Goldbug2 metal detectors, the both have the 10” and 6.5” coils, and I’ve found gold with both of them. Being it doesn’t seem like I’ll be able to head to AZ or southern CA anytime soon I’ve decided to start metal detecting parks and schools again and plan on getting a Minelab Equinox 600 or 800. I’m a big fan of the Goldbug2 and would like to sell them together so who ever ends up with them would have a backup when...

No Properties in Virginia 1110 10
Started by dogmom@k9dejavu.com
I just joined and was shocked that there are no properties in Virginia to explore. Where I live near Goldvein Virginia there are a lot of old gold mines in the area. I expected there would be some sites within the state. I also would like to find a person to go out with. If you live in Virginia and need a prospecting buddy contact me. I have found few areas that are public land near old gold mines, I used a metal detector around one today but the metal trash was impossible to work around. I wil...

Plumas County Claims 964 6
Started by mikepanelli@yahoo.com
Fires have made these claims pretty much inaccessible, and if the fire doesn't get you the smoke will. Will be awhile, maybe next year before you can get to them. This includes Joyce in Butte County. The fires there are extreme and we don't want to hamper fire fighters. They have enough on their plate. Hwy.70, Hwy. 89, Bucks Lake Rd., Antelope Lake Rd. Gennesse and Taylorsville Rds. from Beckworth and Portola. Stay safe, Thank You just a heads up.
