State owned lands come into conversations now and then concerning prospecting and mining so we thought this would be helpful information to have on hand.
Remember folks state owned lands are not National Forests or BLM lands. They are state owned and regulated completely seperately. Mining isn't prohibited but, it is only allowed when you have a written agreement (lease with royalties agreements) ongoing with the state land trust board. These areas would include state wildlife areas which are set up for "recreational wildlife uses" to be specific. The following PDF explains the general rules concerning use/access of the state lands regulated through the Colorado Division of Wildlife in lease agreements for the specific use mentioned above. Prospecting within state owned lands is prohibited without written permission from the board (unless posted otherwise onsite/office) Download a copy for your reference file today everyone.

... also I'm a little confused regarding "State Trust Land" designation.
Dan, if you scroll down the list of State "Trust" Lands, the Mtn (and County) of my claim appear there.... yet I'm on BLM (Federal) managed land. Since you know where it is have a look, they have a couple of odd ATV-related rules. As far as I know that mtn is primarily BLM and I don't recall seeing any State owned or leased land back when I was researching that area. I know that I don't have anything to worry about but I found it odd that my mtn was included on their list. Maybe there's a parcel of that mtn that the State has their mittens on? ![confused0082[1].gif](style_emoticons/default/confused0082[1].gif)

Not trying to steal Dan's thunder here, but I did some research to sharpen my own skills. From what I found comparing the BLM map for that district and what I found in GeoCommunicator you're well into BLM land where you're at. It's to the west and south that gets funky. I'll shoot you a PM with what I used to for some fact checking. -------------------- Life goes by so fast/You only wanna do what you think is right/Close your eyes and it's past/Story of my life - Mike Ness

That's why I'm confused that my mtn is listed under "State Trust Lands" toward the bottom of the pdf. Doesn't make sense. -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER! Very Happy CP Lifetime Member CP CORE TEAM Referral Code CE213 |
