Description

One of California's best-known placer drift mines, this large land package hosts a system of gold-bearing Tertiary channels that have produced desirable coarse jewelry gold and spectacular specimen nuggets since the 1800's

Geological Studies infer a potential Placer Gold resource of 500,000 ounces from several miles of unmined Channels remaining in this property.

Quartz veins on the property have yielded High-Grade Specimen Gold-in-Quartz, but the Lode potential is largely undeveloped.

A Plan of Operations, a Water Order and over $150,000 in Reclamation Bonds are in place.

There is ample Water for mining & milling, and Timber is available on the property to mill for use at the mine.
