We apologize for the release and subsequent problems with our new educational series video. Here it is….. This one addresses questions like “can the USFS cut trees down on my claim. And also addresses claim jumping and what to do.
I grew up in Oregon and loved that state. Over the past few decades, the state has changed politically and quite dramatically. They have effectively, like California, banned or are attempting to ban most methods of small mining in the state. Now they are requiring permits for pollution when dredges actually remove pollutants from […]
While the entire country was embroiled in talk over President Trump’s tax cuts….this happened behind the scenes. We have mentioned we had broken through Trump’s firewall and even have a personal letter from Mr. Trump over the endless letters (every Monday morning sent certified) we sent to 1600 Pennsylvania Blvd outlining the struggle us […]
The Tucson GPAA gold show is this weekend! AMRA will be raffling away a week long stay at Roaring Camp over the weekend. For those who have not been there, it is an amazing place with great gold, great people and is a perfect place to forget the fast paced world we all live in. […]

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 […]

We have spoken of RS2477 many times before and in our videos. We will be posting much about this, including videos this year, but this particular issue is one we are taking to local (county) governments and are going to convince them they “DO” have the authority and the power to stop the insanity that […]
Recently, I had a debate with someone over whether the benefits of small scale gold mining was a matter of national security. It is, and it is undeniable. The vast majority of the gold mined in the world comes from small scale mining and stories like this where the drug cartels are literally making billions […]
