A Compliment to Kevin 1845 2
Started by jo.don2@verizon.net
Kevin, today I received the new magazine Nov/Dec 22. when I opened it I always look for your WTG (where's the gold) article. That is my favorite bar none. I read it and looked it over closely and I just have to say...'GREAT INFORMATION' you obviously spent more time on this with the green and white areas and your break down is eye opening. Man you just nail it each time on WTG but I got a lot out of this and just wanted to say thank you. Good stuff. then I turned the pages and I read your A...

New Garret Axiom Ultra PI detector shake down 1924 3
Started by tgwdh@yahoo.com
Kevin, As the subject matter expert that some of us turn to for the occasional shake down of detectors, have you penciled in a test for the new Garret Axiom PI detector We would like to see how this performs and possibly how it stacks up against the GPX6000 and GPZ7000. I can see already that it is $2k less than the GPX6000 and I heard that in their design phase they were putting more emphasis on a better discrimination system that would ignore hot rocks better than the Minelabs. Thank yo...

Central Alaska Claim Mapping Issue 1709 3
Started by benbelfiglio@yahoo.com
I went through and mapped the north section of the claims coordinate by coordinate but for some reason the claim coordinates and claim boundaries in the GPAA Mining Guide do not match the current claims. If we could get an actual list of individual claims the property encompasses it would make mapping a lot easier, Alaska has pretty good online tools where claims are already mapped out for you, you just need the claim number. The OMRC Serial number listed does not match to any BLM or State clai...

I love that method of using excel and then doing a project in GE online, the 3D really makes a difference! I think you should post and pin the link for the youtube video on how to do it, bet others will love it as well... Maybe in claims area or something. Anyway, thank you so very much for that, excellent. Jim

Highbanking on Arizona claims 1553 4
Started by 1agentcue@gmail.com
Arizona being my home state and a new LDMA member I'm curious as to any local claims in the state that are good for high banking I'm going purchase one anyway as we travel every summer to get out of the Phoenix heat and plan on hitting other states that I'm sure would get some use with. Figured Kevin may know as I believe it is his home state also. ;) Any input from anyone is greatly appreciated. Regards Dave

RxR Act 1390 1
Started by JIM BROTHERS
I have come across a couple pieces of property by a river that is unclaimed (On the BLM MLRS) and when I look it up on the MTP (additional Documents), it references an ancient (old) transportation act for the railroad. There is no tracks anyplace..... My question is, does this mean the property is withdrawn from being claimed and the railroad owns it Or did it revert back to the NFS How can I check Jim

How long can you stay on a claim 7797 6
Started by martinamerica@yahoo.com
A member on FB recently asked if he could camp on a claim. I said of course. Then the discussion went to for how long. Please add this in your FAQ section. Some say it’s 2 weeks on BLM and FS land. Some say it’s indefinite on a claim. some say it's 6 months. What is it I can’t find anything on the GPAA website about this. The search function does not work. Thank you. Martin Wormser

Stay limits on claims 1804 3

I was curious about how long can a prospector stay on a club claim in Forest service lands. My son and I usually stay a whole summer dredging on claims we have permission to dredge on. I just recently joined GPAA, monthly for now, because we saw some interesting areas where the clubs claim is on the Middle fork Boise river here in Idaho. We usually work upstream more on friends claims, but needed a change in scenery...too many dredges up in that area. I know if your working a claim, the stay...

I'm interested in info about detecting the Central claims, the public prospecting areas out of Fairbanks listed in the 50th anniversary mining guide and any other areas in Alaska.
