Hey guys long time no see..CP and Mrs. CP...as I was in the mtns. of North carolina this last weekend I went to a mineral museum which had lost of books...now 90% of all rock and min. books just repeat the same thing..so they get nary a glance from me...well this time I noticed one book way in the back in the corner.."whats this" I say..."golly gosh darn lookie here" ...looks like a Bible but not just any old bible the "Mt. Antero Bible"(comparing this find to something as good as the Bible:)) well heck ya..this is an awesome book..extremely in-depth..well written..all the info you could ever need..it's older written in the 80's but still an excellent read...what is the collecting status on Antero and White mtns. now? Are there still large lode claims filed on those molybdenum areas? any other info you can provide?

I was under the impression that all claims have to be well posted. How else is it supposed to work? Without signs, I guess anyone going up there accidently could jump claims, regardless of how much information he/she brought. Also, is it claiming if you donīt tell anyone about it?
Anyway, is it Gunnison Field Office (BLM) I should contact or visit for further information? |

I was under the impression that all claims have to be well posted. How else is it supposed to work? All claims are suppose to be properly marked but can be vandalized or removed. Is why it is best to know where they are before heading to the field. Without signs, I guess anyone going up there accidently could jump claims, regardless of how much information he/she brought. It's not accidental to be prospecting, that's an intentional activity. The cut and dry of prospecting is to know where the claims are or rather aren't so you know where to dig. It's not the claim owners responsibility to show you where the claim is but rather your responsibility to know where you are in the field.........on a claim or off!! Also, is it claiming if you donīt tell anyone about it? This question makes no sense to me since one has to find open land to prospect first, then and only then can you proceed to prospect for a discovery to stake claims upon as a citizen of this country. Also has to be filed at the proper offices once staked (claimed in the field), so one has to speak of it to them. -------------------- Education is the key to the future,
