I saw this claim for sale on eBay. Funny thing is there is no gold in that part of the creek. The placers were deposited below the mines which are all way downstream a good mile or so. -------------------- Level 2 member -12/25/16

Cute costume.
It amazes me that there is such lax enforcement (basically no enforcement) by the feds or states or commerce dept to curtail this bullshit. Apparently no department is designated to go after these crooks? They found the soft loophole in the mining system. More and more scammers are catching on and doing it. Illegal as hell, but nobody can stop them. Nobody has the delegated authority to cite or arrest them I reckon. -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER!

When pulling paperwork on Mr. Milligan a gov. employee confirmed my belief by saying that he "likely has never been to Colorado". Sometimes they know it but can't do much. There is very little regulation for this stuff. We are about it combined with local law enforcement when possible. By they way swizz Mr. Milligan is filling paper claims near your buddies real claim up on the mountain. You may want to toss him a heads up. -------------------- |
