We stumbled across this article posted on another Facebook forum this morning on suction dredging. This little Proline dredge, which has been demonized by environmentalists, the EPA and USFS is being used to create a clean riparian waterway and remove noxious weeds in Idaho. All across America, Federal, State and local agencies are […]
When we post calls to action and request you to comment to BLM, USFS or whoever needs to hear your voice on an issue is the single most frustrating thing we here at AMRA experience. Making your voice heard is not just crucial, it is paramount in stopping the swamp from taking your lands away […]
How long does it take you to open an email window and send an email two sentences long? One minute? Two? This is what we are asking you to do and to oppose a new Wild and Scenic proposal on the South Fork Clearwater in Idaho. This is the same river we have been […]
Welfare Queens? More of the same. If tax money (public money) were removed from this environmental scam, these radical environmental groups would have to close shop and go get a real job.

This is the primary argument […]
One of our staff members found this website and man do we love it. It is a historical site of mines, placers and mining towns in the West. Although the exact accuracy of the mines we have been researching is not precise, it’s pretty darn close. We have been trying to research our […]
Please SHARE this post if you love small mining. Recently a brief was written to the United States Supreme Court on behalf of the Solicitor General of the US recommending the Supreme Court NOT hear the landmark Brandon Rinehart case. The case is about whether or not the states can create prohibitions which frustrate […]
Update on the Barstow/BLM road closures. We spent much of today on the phone with attorney’s, County Supervisors, other elected folks, the media and our own staff. Not to mention dealing with an injured pup, our boy Charlie. He’s going to be OK, but man do I hate wasps. We are leaving for […]
The picture here was taken today. This is in front of the Bear River sign at the entrance to the public area near Auburn CA. We drove there today and AMRA pressed to be included (on your behalf) in a meeting with Senatorial, Congressional, and Assembly staff members to hear how their policies and laws […]
