14 Replies and 8922 Views Unpublished Claims Online  8922  14 Started by  dondorman@live.com Is there a way to find out about new claims that are not in the current claims guide  I am planning to go to the LDMA site at Burnt River Oregon soon and want to know if there are new claims nearby, or on the western side of Idaho.  I have my Pick and Shovel Gazettes in storage currently so I can't go back through them.  There needs to be an easy place to find the unpublished claims on the menus .     Thanks for any help!

9 Replies and 15603 Views To Classify or Not To Classify  15603  9 Started by  jsohlberg@att.net After reading the article in the Pick and Shovel dealing with tuning one's sluice, it seemed the the writer's recommendation that classification is important in reducing the gold losses.  My mentor, a prospector of some 30 years, assures me that there is no need to classify and, in fact, is adamant about dropping larger rocks on the sluice front end so as not to lose any gold that may be clinging to those rocks.  Normally being assigned to the sluice box when we are out prospecting, it...

7 Replies and 7994 Views GPS equipment  7994  7 Started by  Mikeminer80@gmail.com Good afternoon all, I am a new member and also a new prospector (really new) and went out to a couple of claims in Mohave County Az. yesterday. Although the directions were pretty good, I don't have a GPS so I wasn't sure if I was in the right spot. Need advice on purchasing a decent GPS either for both the vehicle and walking the area or just for walking the area. Really don't want to piss off someone by intruding on their claim and it might help me become friends with the claim owner. Thanks...
