Most of you know that we’ve been watching and have been involved in fighting this Oceano Dunes fight for some time. Looks like they used flawed science in this, just like dredging. For the complete article, click HERE
We’ve been writing and educating folks for nearly a decade now on the difference between a “right” and a “privilege”. Rights are granted, like the right of access to a valid mining claim, owning a gun for your protection or the right to speak your mind without fear. For most of my adult life, I’ve […]

We are back from our vacation now and ready to get back to work on some major issues on our plate: USFS and Italian Bar disaster. We sent a certified letter along our partners, Blue Ribbon Coalition demanding answers on why the USFS doesn’t clear this designated recreation area from the trash and squatters […]
We use some pretty serious acids when cleaning up our gold and gold specimens, mostly nitric acid. Our good buddy Dave Varabioff uses some really serious acid (hydroflouric) and we considered obtaining some to eat some quartz away from a really nice specimen we want to expose…..until we asked some of these experts on their […]
