Not Gold? 5569 7
Started by airnut79831@yahoo.com
I have found something in my mini sluice that is heavy like gold but is 'shiny silvery' in color.

Started by EJWHITEJR81@HOTMAIL.COM
When is the latest you can mine at rye patch and is it still open or did they grab it for the sage grouse.
I just got a claim there then found out about the sage grouse. I haven't even had a chance to go there yet.

Triple D&M claim help 5979 5
Started by Parrentd@gmail.com
Hello, I am a total greenie to gold prospecting, I just started this year. I went out to the claim yesterday and metal detected around for most of the day and didn't find anything. I am curious as to what areas are good for setting up a Highbanker or sluice All I found with the metal detector was a quarter from 1941 and a bunch of bullets and old cans. If there is anyone that wants to go out let me know I'd love to learn. Thanks Derik

Started by 73mcj73@gmail.com
Hello
I am a Greenhorn,..I bought a Garrett Pro Gold MD, a pan, and a few other 'do-dads'...it looks like the orange water pro would be useful on dry land and under water. I see Garrett just came out with an updated black (dry land) model that looks good,..but dry land.
I would love to hear from of you users,..what you think about the actual item and is it useful,...and the model you like and why.
Thank you ahead of time for any information you can inpart.

My question is: Any recommendations for good, sturdy 'sample bags'
