Prospecting code of ethics Options

[fenixsmom]

Hiya folks! I was wondering about ethical recovery. I was pondering originally how many buckets of concentrate is ethical to bring home to work. That led to the pondering of ethics while prospecting in general. I believe this is a very important subject to touch on because it effects us all. The more damage we do to our rivers, lands etc., the more negatively others will see us. Although to some this may seem like common sense, there are those that don't give a flying you know what. I am a firm believer in preserving the land as close to as pristine as I found it. (Minus a little concentrate). So is there any advice you can give to those of us that are just starting out?

Exactly Dan. I am aware of the 20 lb. limit being hers, and the 50 lb limit being the BLM.

I was talking with the BLM geologist out here and I told him of my plans, gave general locations, and he really was VERY helpful. And he made it clear that because of the general lack of information the public has or knows how to use, too many people are missing "the signs". So a casual use might be better for me.
