mdavids Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 I am curious about the places that you guys go prospecting. Is it the same place everytime or do you mix it up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin nuggethunting Posted October 5, 2006 Admin Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Hello MDavids, I would first like to say, Welcome to the Nuggethunting.com Forums! As for where to prospect, here in Arizona there are hundreds if not thousands of spots. I like to roam around different spots. I will spend a few weeks or even a month (on the weekends) hitting the same general area prospecting, but then will get bored of that spot and try others. During the winter season I like to hit the spots that are too hot to hunt during the summers months. During the summer months I normally hit the close spots, but sometimes will venture into the higher country for cooler temps. Where are you located? Talk with you soon,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reno Chris Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 I keep going to the same place as long as I'm successful! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shep Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 I like to go where I find a bit of gold, cell phone and pager don't work and watch out for Grubstake. I know it's a bear, but somebody's got to do it! I was going to buy him a steak dinner w/ all the fix'ns Saturday (Clamper initiation), but no, he wants to watch me find gold, so that's what we're doing.

29prospector Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 Hi MDavids,I prospect in many different areas within a 150 mile radius of my home. I'm always looking for that spot that has been missed.As for mining, I mine on 2 different claims that I own in partnership with 7 others. The purpose of the mine is dry placer.Gave up hard mining in 1999 after a back injury. I do miss going underground.O'29 in 29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
