I have my camping equipment and a gold pan. Been slowly putting together my stuff for a low key simple personal operation to get my knees dirty, shoes wet and in the end hopeful but also realistic in finding some color this spring, summer and fall.

New to forum 4153 2
Started by noeleconomos@yahoo.com
Hello everyone! My name is Noel and from Az. I have been a member since 1992, but really haven't taken advantage of the membership much. I like to keep my dues current because I believe in the right of prospecting and mining. I would have joined a local club years ago, but my work schedule got in the way. I do hope to get out more this year though! But any how, I thought I'd drop by and introduce myself. Happy Prospecting!

The two sluice boxes I have been looking into lately are the 36' prospector Bazooka gold trap and the Grizzly 3 sluice. I understand that the grizzly is operated on the bank not directly ...

Going to plan a week trip over to that area. There is a GPAA claim Carol Placer. Anyone ever work this ground and how did you do. Also wondering if I should be exploring other areas, there is so much BLM to cover around there. Will have 5th wheel and ATV, hopefully there is a good camping spot near the claim.
