claims and drones 1880 2
Started by j_pavli@hotmail.com
Hello Ken, I was reading your exploits on research of the claims with drones and sympathize with your frustrations. If I may be so bold is to ask what brand were you using. I have a dji spark and was a little hesitant to use it in the desert to research the claims because of the same problems you stated in the pick and shovel gazette. You can PM me if it is out of order to ask you questions of paticular products that you use in the field. Thanks for all your work here at GPAA.

Started by wendywylde1989@gmail.com
I was just informed by a local GPAA member that the states legislators are at it again. They are proposing legislation tthat would totally ban all motorized and gravity suction dredging in Washington State. It had it's first reading in both houses yesterday 01/17/2019. We need to get the word out and get everyone to write to their legislators to get this stopped as soon as possible.

Mining Guide Claims 2756 2
Started by jask5152@live.com
Hi Kevin, I am a GPAA member and noticed a claim in my mining guide (Dickinson 2) that has a Member Report from an LDMA member of the same name. Since it is in my mining guide, is it safe to assume that I am allowed to go on that claim Guess I'm not clear on how the 2 different memberships relate to one another. Thanks for the clarification!

Gold fever episode. 2413 1
Started by stananvergie@aol.com
Was searching for an episode where a fellow named Ralph/ I think. He was showing how he processed his concentrates. Found in a secret spot near L. A. California. He worked under a carport next to the house and had awesome amounts of gold. Also mentioned giving black sand for around the rose bushes. It was close to the episode we talked about not to long ago ' The Concrete Jungle'.

Good claim to visit from the mining guide 35352 6
Started by greenmm2k4@yahoo.com
Good afternoon Kevin,
I am looking to take a trip to one of the claims in the mining guide, ( my first one )! My choices are AZ,CA,or OR. I would prefer a claim that will be semi warm that time of year. I just want to know if you had any info or know wich claims have really good gold to pan and sluice. A claim that has fairly easy access to and is in a relativly safe area. Im planning a 4 day trip and plan on renting a jeep too.

Rye Patch, NV Best Time to Metal Detect? 2909 0
Started by jfrinehart@gmail.com
I've read about Rye Patch, and know I need to 'know before I go' about WHERE to prospect (avoiding claims), but WHEN is the best time to go there since we'll be traveling from Tennessee, most likely through Texas first, then north.
Thank you,
Jim and Frances Rinehart
(First time posting a question...hope this is in the right place)

Makro Gold Racer 22693 12
Started by jlocke1970@att.net
I was curious of any input on the new Makro brand Gold Racer. On paper it looks pretty good for a novice 'nugget shooter'.
I have been trying to decide on a good vlf detector for nugget hunting. I have some (but NOT a lot of detecting) experience. I have looked at the Fisher Gold Bug 2 and the Whites GMT, now I run across this Makro brand ( European , I believe). Stats look good and what I have been able to find online review wise also looks promising.
Opinions
Thanks !
Jim

Hi just a question 3047 2
Started by PatrickJRyan1981@yahoo.com
Hi I have a question I hope someone can help me. The properties listed online why do some say 0 acres and not list directions Is it because that claim doesn't exist anymore I live in Crossville TN and only see the claim in Buchanan GA. I also don't see any regulations, I have a gold hog raptor that I want to take with me and also I'm not sure where I can and can't dig.... Any help from anyone would be much appreciated.
