Admin nuggethunting Posted July 23, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Hey Uncle Ron, Do you know what claims sold? I know the top of the hill like the back of my hand, but didn't know there were (4) claims available up there. The only claims that come to mind are AZO's (4) claims off the side of Frenchmen's Flat. The main Potato Patch diggings and surrounding areas are all Patented Mineral claims. Pretty much the entire top is claimed, claimed and over claimed.

Uncle Ron Posted July 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Yo Rob..Just passing on what the guy sent me...I have no idea of the details...I thought the top of the hill including the potato patch was patented ground...Maybe the New Yorkers are buying private ground???? ... Just another interesting development...Cheers, Unc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin nuggethunting Posted July 24, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Hello Uncle Ron, I know exactly what claims they are buying, but the deal is not done as of yet. They are still in the process of buying the claims. Don't want to say too much right now until the deal is finalized. What I can tell you is we (Chris and I) found a bunch of nuggets there! Many of the nuggets were in the range of 1/4 to 1+ ounces. Take care,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
