We’re always on the lookout for a good partnership or investment opportunity, especially small scale commercial mining. So if you’ve got something in mind drop me a line and we’ll take it from there.
If you are from a local Arizona school and would like for your students to get a good first hand look at some gold and have the opportunity to learn some real life facts about mining and prospecting don’t hesitate to give me a call. We’ve worked with local schools in the past and its a great privilege to share with America’s kids.

I am staying at Black Canyon City and I am looking for some place to play. I have been placer mining for 10 years and after retirement 7 years ago, mostly full time. I never been in this area and looked in several places, I have yet to find any place with any more than a few specks. Is this a group that I can join? Are there any claims near here?
Thanks for any help I can get.

Hello prospectors,
My husband and I are planning a November vacation to the Prescott area. We are members of the Indiana GPAA and would
love some help as to where to go, what to expect as to weather temperatures, any claims that might be difficult to find and basically any information that could help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kathy and Bob
Hi Kathy and Bob, I’m not a GPAA member but they do have claims there. It will be chilly at night so bring warm gear. Someone on our forum most likely knows, we welcome you > http://www.arizonagoldprospectors.com/invision/
Thanks Rod,
We are getting excited for our trip out there. I read somewhere that A&B prospectors is the place to go for information. I just hope we find a campground that’s open and allows tent camping. That seems to be kinda
hard to find. If anyone knows of one please let me know. Thanks again,
Kathy and Bob. secretary northern indiana gpaa

How many Brits do you have out there looking for Gold and is it possible for none US citizens to prospect
Hi Geoff
I have no idea how many Brits are here looking for gold, only ever saw a handful. I don’t answer any questions that even remotely get close to the legal line. You may want to consider joining the forum and asking.
hi rod, i am starting a sediment recovery project in california, so far I have obtained a exploration permit to further test my claim. this project involve reclaim about forty acres of a creek in plumas county, california, we will sell most of our overburden as aggregate products, very high demand for river rock products.. Of course this is really about the recovery of the gold and pgms located on my claim. a half mile of virgin bedrock, middle of the mother lode country. this claim was covered up by hydraulic mining actity, 1851 to 1910, and the creek was never worked right here. anyway I have gold, platnium, palladium,and irridium. what I am looking for is an investor for my production phase, 750k us. you have a great site. thanks gary ray, crystal eagle mining, spanish inquistion placer mine, gold shepard llc.
Hope you find that investor Gary
