I saw you guys on this day walking by. I dig in a few holes around the area all the time. Happy to finally find the blog! Still can’t believe you had all that stuff down there. Awesome operation. It’s nice to see someone go big once in a while because it’s a great spot that a lot of places in Arizona just don’t provide. Glad you guys wound up with some color. I recommend this dig if you can find it!

In March 2012, you will have paid a location fee and initial maintenance fee for the current 2012 assessment year. You will still need to make a renewal payment for the upcoming 2013 assessment year on or before September 1 2012.

See Title 43 part 3834 of the CFR
more specifically, 3834.11

If we file a new claim now (say March) and have it ok’ed and recorded , do we submit the renewal paperwork September 2012 (6 months later) or is it good till the following September (2013)?

Here is a link to the Porcupine Creek in Haines, Alaska on Google Maps.

You can see it better if you had a topographical map of that area.

I suggest using Google Earth with this USGS Topographical Map overlay.

The current claim owner has to transfer the claim to you. Call your local BLM and ask them for guidance.

I think everyone is getting a little nuts about GOLD prospecting I have been at it for over 20 years, and I haven’t made a millon cents so I dont think I’m going to see a million dollars. TV????
