Colorado is known historically as a mining state. Naturally attracting prospectors
on vacation wanting to find a nugget, a little color in their pan, or maybe one of the
many gem specimens Colorado is also known for.
Ready to do some prospecting?......... Where do you start?
Land status research can be a tricky thing to figure out but we would like to help everyone who is interested in learning.
Education being one of the CP clubs main goals, we would like to help folks learn the begining steps of mining.
One of those first steps obviously would be land status of the area you wish to explore, or maybe you are still looking
for that place. This is where the CP club membership could come in mighty handy!
Did you know? .... You may collect samples/specimens for your own personal use and study without any prospecting permit.
Okay, ready to head out and get your samples/specimens?
Where can you explore and prospect that isn't claimed you ask?
The CP membership grants you access to our research done on NF/BLM public land. (to check for exsisting claims)
With the members info provided you will be able to go prospecting on your schedule, any time or day of the year!
In addition, we try to help everyone learn their basic rights and the laws concerning exploring/prospecting (Y)OUR national land.
