Re: Question

So just for the sake of asking, has anyone recently been cited. I know when this whole thing started some folks got cited and I really didn't catch the outcomes. this is when they outlawed dredges and subsequent mechanical means. so I haven't kept up on what's going on. I get that we are relegated ...

Re: Question

Are we allowed to use our compressors to snipe with? i see on keenes website they are using electric compresors to snipe. No one can answer your questions because no one knows. I can guess at the answer, which is no, it is a machine. Law enforcement would be the ones to make that call. I don't mean...

Re: Question

Jim, you're to be commended - you were lightning quick on this one - I had hardly started typing and you jumped on it like a duck on a June Bug.

Re: Question

Hmmm, been a member for many years and have posted a lot in the past (not much recent), shows I have only posted twice? Hmmmm Due to technical problems we lost the forums for a while, some time back. You probably had to ask to be registered anew, which would have started the post count over again.

Re: We are still a club & still in business !!

Well, I didn't actually build any equipment. But I did get my old 2 1/2" dredge out of storage and assembled. It is the old style that uses an inner tube for floatation. I assembled it on a table outside of my garage and that old Briggs engine actually started after being unused for 10-15 years. It ...

Re: Any one around?

I'm here every day, but this is a slow time of the year for all the forums. Everyone is complaining bout no activity on any of the gold forums. I don't think that the club has claims as far down river as you are. But here is a link to our master list[ of mining properties. https://www.goldgold.com/m...
