Buying vs. Leasing a claim Options

[Braun]

I have been searching for a claim on Mt Antero. They seem to be very few available. I have searched many sites too.

It would be greatly appreciate if someone can direct me in the right area. I would be more apt to lease a claim but am looking to spend around $2500 on a small claim purchase.

I am new to this Forum and have become interested in gems recently. Topaz and smokey Quartz. I have shares in 2 gold claims here in Colorado and my wife and I enjoy going out and we usually get pretty good results. Staking a gem claim would be fantastic and the reading I have done so far makes me think this is the right group to learn from. Guide me toward membership and I would like to explore Park county. We have a little camping spot near Hartsell. Thanks for letting me on the Forum, Rob

Welcome to the forums Rob!

This is surely the right group to learn from. I learned how to stake my own claim starting here on the forums. I staked a lode claim for crystals(Topaz,Quartz,Fluorite,Goethite,Xenotime) a few years back and I am on the hunt this season for my first placer claim(gold).

There is mountains of info here so dig in!
