The claim is legally registered with the Bureau of Land Management out of Sacramento and Trinity County. You own the mineral rights, not sharing with others, on the 40 acres, and use your 40 acres, recreationally for camping: tent, camper, or RV, and prospecting: an awesome, beautiful area.
We feel we are selling more than the gold and minerals on beautiful land.
You would be acquiring an experience that will give you a good feel for what the old time prospectors must have felt during the days of the original California Gold Rush.
I am a retired teacher, and got into prospecting as a hobby with my family.
I am 70 and my wife 68, and we have gained the experience to select the best areas to locate claims.
For the possibility of constructing any building you or others could live in, you need to file a Plan of Operation with the BLM for approval, showing you have developed a full-time operation performing diligent mining. This is a difficult permit to get,
You do not need a plan, permission nor a permit to camp and prospect.
You do not need to be a full time prospector to file a Plan for a shed type structure.
Now that we have located the claim, you never have to declare to the BLM any gold or gems you find. You can prospect as little or as much as you choose.
A mining claim is an affordable way to enjoy the beauty of the land combined with the adventure of panning for gold.
If within one year you are not satisfied with your claim, you can trade for another comparable claim, just paying the BLM and County transfer fees which will be about $125.

Mining Claims as an investment: if you purchase a claim from us, at no charge, I would help you if you ever decided to sell in the future.
Mining Claims are a great investment, as claims go up in value over time, just as land does. This is one of the areas of the original California Gold Rush.
Owning a mining claim is having access to a lifetime of great family fun and recreation, in a very beautiful, natural setting.
With an approved BLM Plan of Operation, a building could be built on the land: any building that benefits and improves the claim, though you cannot permanently live on a mining claim. Current usage, is what the BLM calls, Casual Use: panning, shovel, rock hammer, metal detector.
On our visits to the claim, we gathered in and around the river, approx. 1/8 of an ounce of gold, being worth about $225. As the BLM does not specify the amount of gold to be found to locate a claim other than gold needs to be discovered, we use this amount for a 40 acre claim as a projection of good gold potential. Someone with more time may find more. Gold prices are over $1800/ounce. Though we could never guarantee what you will find, we did locate this claim in an historically rich area for gold prospecting.
Gold prices have gone up over $300 an ounce in just this past year,
You are allowed to post No Trespassing for Prospecting signs around the claim.

South of Weaverville on Highway 3 isHayfork, the largest valley in Trinity County, named so because of the vast hay fields that grew along Hayfork Creek that winds through the valley. Today there are still a few large working ranches raising hay and cattle and other crops; and Hayfork is arguably the agricultural capital of the county. The Trinity County Fair is held in Hayfork in August of each year, bringing everyone "home"to catch up with long-time friends and family. Visitors are often in awe of how "old timey"the fair is with the focus on local agriculture, history, art, dried and canned goods, and local talent. Hayfork offers several grocery and convenience stores, coffee shops, and cafe's. Its an inviting little mountain town, home to about 2,500 residents with independent spirits that are also very community minded.
Trinity County has much to offer in outdoor recreation. It doesn't matter if your preference is on land or on water there is plenty of outdoor adventure here and waiting for you.
If you prefer land then the Trinity Alps Wilderness has more than enough to satisfy hikers, campers, bird watchers, nature and other outdoor land recreational enthusiasts. Miles of trails into the mountains provide memorable hiking and horseback riding, while abundant camping facilities provide a place to pitch camp for family outdoor fun.
If you prefer water, then there are the beautiful Trinity, Lewiston, and Ruth lakes, and the Trinity river and many streams provide all the water adventure that you can handle. White water rafting, boating, water sports, and trophy fishing all await you here!
Trinity Lake and Shasta Lake are nearby to enjoy boating, swimming, and fishing.
In the early 1850s, miners from around the world came to Weaverville after the discovery of gold at Sutters Mill in Coloma and the subsequent influx of people into northern California. Perason B. Reading mined the Trinity River near Douglas City at what is now called Reading Bar. News of Readings success drew miners to remote diggings.
In 1850, Sacramento newspapers publicized the gold diggings and more miners rushed into the area.
Trinity County is in California Gold Region 6. This region has a number of National Forests where prospecting, mining and panning is done.

Hayfork Creek running through the claim is a unique advantage for gold prospecting. It is a tributary of the gold rich Trinity River.
Gold always occurs in gravels in the metallic state and when so found has various physical characteristics. Gold is dense and heavy, it has a characteristic metallic color, and it is soft and easily malleable (it is easily formed by hammering). These are the characteristics used by prospectors to identify gold in the field.
Placer gold occurs on the claim as small grains derived from gossan formed by weathering, and oxidation of the gold, copper and iron rich veins. Gold also occurs as grains flakes and small nuggets derived from the erosion of mineralized fault zones on, and upstream from the claim.
