There is a vein of a valuable minerals running thru the claim, in this case, quartz, gold, smoky quartz and fluorite. You can also prospect on the whole claim outside the lode mineral vein.

National Forests remained open at all times during the virus with a televised invitation by the Director for families to visit them as safe places for family recreation, making our mining claims some of the safest places for your family to enjoy and get away from all the nonsense. A mining claim is an affordable way to enjoy the beauty of the land combined with the adventure of panning for gold and using your rock hammer for gens up the mountain ridges on the claim. Owning a mining claim is having access to a lifetime of great family fun and recreation, in a very beautiful, natural setting. We feel we are selling more than the gold and gems 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 Colorado Gold Rush. A lode claim differs from our placer claims, as on a lode claim you can dig into the mountain side and can even go to the extent of building a mine shaft. Having a lode claim is an advantage as you can dig into the claim with a shaft if you choose, and the nearby creek has some good trout fishing. Our lode claim has veins of valuable minerals including gold in veins (called lodes) cutting thru rocks. Quartz and gold are frequently found together and digging into the quartz vein is called “chasing the vein.” Veins of quartz, smoky quartz, and fluorite are on the claim. On the claim I found a quartz vein with gold traces in the rock. Pick and shovel, rock hammer, metal detector, and is hard rock mining. I did not expose the whole vein, though was able to follow it going through the claim, intermittently. The process of lode, hard rock mining, is the process where gold is extracted directly from the lode vein beneath the ground. Dig down about 3 feet as go through the claim, then pick, shovel, and rock hammer working the sides of that hole. Filling in the holes when leave the claim as required by the national forest. For the use of any machinery, you need to file a Plan of Operation with the BLM for approval. Scratch your rock ore against an unglazed white ceramic streak plate. If it's gold, it will leave a golden streak. Or scratch the surface of the specimen with a knife. Gold is a soft metal that will show scratch marks. Rockhounding in Colorado Starting with the rich gold and silver deposits which were the starting point of so many Colorado towns, the Centennial State, with over 770 types of minerals to be found, is second only to California in the number of different gems and minerals statewide. Colorado is also host to a dizzying array of rocks and minerals. Some of the higher profile include dinosaur fossils. Colorado can certainly be considered a rockhound and gem hunters dream. The vast mountains of national forests gives one a newfound sense of exploration and discovery.

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. According to geologists, lode gold deposits are present in many of this area’s mountain sides. The area once prospected by early settlers, these mountains are still considered to contain lode gold. This is a 20.66 acre unpatented, gold mining placer claim, the Cave Creek Lode #6, in the Rocky Mountains and the Roosevelt National Forest. The claim is legally registered with the Bureau of Land Management out of Lakewood, CO and the Boulder County Recorder. You own the mineral rights, not sharing with others, on the 20.66 acres, and use your 20.66 acres recreationally for camping and prospecting in an awesome, beautiful area. There is a flatter, open area on the claim road for camping. For any building like a shed, you need to file a Plan of Operation with the BLM for approval. For anything to live in, you would need to file a Plan of Operation with the BLM for approval, and to be considered, you would need to have developed a full-time mining operation. 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.” 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. With an approved BLM Plan of Operation, a building can be built on the land: any building that benefits and improves the claim. As stated by the BLM, this can be the "construction of a building, road, fence, or enclosure necessary for mining." Current usage, is what the BLM calls, Casual Use: shovel, rock hammer, chisels, metal detector, where no permission nor permit is needed to camp and prospect. On our visit to the claim, we gathered around the hillside and creek, approx. 1/8 of an ounce of gold, being worth about $500. 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 20,66 acre claim as a projection of good gold potential. Someone with more time may find more. Gold prices are over $4000/ounce. Though we could never guarantee what you will find, we did locate this claim in an historical area for gold and gem prospecting. Gold in just this past year has gone up over $500 per ounce. We also found some nice specimens of smoky quartz and fluorite up the mountain ridges. You are allowed to post No Trespassing for Prospecting signs in and around the claim. A mining claim owner may limit or restrict public recreational use of/or public access across claims or portions of claims that a
