We have had several great suggestions and it seems that we need to cover some ground on who why and where governmental agencies should be able or are "authorized" to regulate mining operations.
Unfortunately we must also cover the terminology of "recretional or recreationalsists" once again to start as well.
We will discuss this in the meeting as well but I'm going to post my view here as well as it is of the utmost importance that it not be used! EVER!
IF.....you are willing to give up ALL MINING RIGHTS, then you may use these "titles"
Miners are not recreating! They are mining!
Now that can be at many different levels...ie prospecting for new deposits to file new claims to working large scale full time mines.
The tools used during that time and or methods are up to the miner or "claim owner".
We all must understand that knowing how to operate as a "bona fide miner" will help all of us be successful miners....at what ever "level" we desire to mine at.
Tonight will be a really fun and informative meeting....Hope to see everyone there.
