    2nd Gold Rush

    very well aware...which is why you always look for visible claim markers in the vicinity and they have to have highly visible claim markers. Those are the rules the claim owners have to go by. I am a member of the GPAA, as well as another prospecting org up here in the High Desert. There are...

    2nd Gold Rush

    For me, its one of the healthiest hobbies you can get into, I mean once you have the equipment its basically free except for gas and food. And you are guaranteed a dividend for your trouble and if you do your research well enough you can cover your equipment plus gas and food and whatever else...

    2nd Gold Rush

    Even when you say its been picked over, that is proof there is gold there, and I can guarantee there is still a sizable amount of gold in the location its nearly impossible to get it all especially with the equipment they used then and the equipment we use today.

    2nd Gold Rush

    Actually, it doesn't always require water, water is nice though especially for placer mining. Wind and time are also good friends to the prospector. Thats why I do alot of prospecting in the desert not only because its in my locale but because at one time that entire away was once a river, or a...

    LOL I don't see that being a problem for me, right now no time for girls. 40+ hrs a week plus school, and prospecting...ha. not exactly girl magnet. Most people don't even know what prospecting is...so I have to give the "The thing they do at Knotts Berry farm..." explanation. Its a good...

    I like the way you think...good thing I have friends with experience in hard rock mining. I also have access to seismic monitors, and some thermal cams. there is only one road leading into this compound and then its butt up against the mountain side.

    Found something interesting on a prospectin trip...

    I agree...the buildings are for the most part intact all it would would need would be new windows, doors, security fence, some drywall and refurbishment...just gotta keep the shooters from getting in. The buidlings are shot up pretty bad. Will do. I'll take better pics the next time.

    Found something interesting on a prospectin trip...

    Nope just abandoned...no owner. The place is dead. I might be interested in it myself tho would make one swell retreat. Land is probably suuuuper cheap. I wouldn't say that just yet....I took some samples looks good enough for some small time stuff still. In the smelting house I found metal lids...

    Went out prospecting on Sunday for a quick little jaunt didn't expect to find anything...but came upon this place nestled in a box canyon. Appears to be a 1930s - 1940s era miners compound...complete with chicken coop, smelting house / workshop, 2 car garage, animal pen, main house, guest...
