Hey, Did you hear? GATA & Bill showed up "clean" & Gata is a "non-profit" now. Just took them a bit of time to get everything cleared & on the level. Bill's still paying far to much of his own travel for GATA,though I wish he wouldn't. & GATA is operating still on that shoe string though the string is, at last, getting a bit longer.
Of the "pay to pan" operations, we have bunches here in Colorado. One of the biggest / best is just below the, now gaming, towns of Black Hawk & Central Cities. Along the same line a large public area where the local "panners club" and other play in the water and an "operating" small scale mining company - just a family deal currently.
Seems as they have installed the new casinos bunches of "the heavy yellow metal" has been washed, blown, & dug loose, and is washed down to the "pay for pan" & public beach below. Nuggets up 1.4 oz(biggest I've heard of have been picked out with quite a few in the .30-.40 range.
"Funny" how each time they do a great deal of work on retaining walls, & parking lots, & casinos are started more is pulled out below? As Colorado's only other town with "limited gambling" is in the Cripple Creek of legend, I would not be all that shocked if someone were to find the major Casino Corp.s which have dumped mega bucks into those towns are working the short side.
