We Discovered a Huge Area that is Producing Gold Nuggets!

We visited "Wingate," one of our popular gold mining properties, with around 70 members. This was to follow up on an earlier weekend prospecting project in the same area where we recovered a bunch of gold, including dozens upon dozens of beautiful gold nuggets. With that earlier experience behind us...

We recovered 200 gold nuggets in just a few hours along the Klamath River

This past weekend, we had around 70 people participate in one of our Group gold mining Projects. Our fortunes were so good, Mike Leamy (otherwise known as "Dr. Gold") stumbled upon a quarter-ounce gold nugget up by the road as he got out of his car! The event was fun and educational for everyone -- ...

We still Have a Reasonable Opportunity to be Allowed Suction Dredges and Motorized Mining on the Federal Lands!

After careful review of the court documents from the Rinehart and Bohmker cases, we realized that the BLM and USFS (Forest Service) mining regulations had been amended in the early 2000’s, basically allowing the States authority over mining on federal lands in excess of authority which the BLM or US...

Suction Dredging Unlikely this Season in California or Oregon
