The purpose of this thread is very simple: To monitor/analyze those factors
affecting the price of gold, long-term, short-term, and in-between,
and to determine where we currently stand in relation to those factors...
OK, sounds good to me, and incase you forgot who me is, me = Doug AK.
Now what could be more on target for an on topic post than me reporting
on a brand new approach of a gold mining company to use the exploding
usage of the personal computer in homes that are connected via telephone
lines that represent the majority of current usage thru the likes of AOL
so that citizens around the globe can connect to receive information and
new ideas. So as "its" exploding with no limits yet imagined, could not
the first new "way" to do something in the area of gold in the ground to
finally reach a buyer represented by anyone in the world where their
government does not restrict internet usage and buying of gold, could not
the first person be the one to get all the p's and q's and have all the
i's dotted and t's crossed and start something that if successful will
lead to others doing a copycat ? Yes, I think so, and not just for the
money, but also because it is gold we is talking about folks, not just
you average humdumb metal, but something to feel good about having that
will tickle you sense of well being, along with Store of Value.
So here it is folks, the first that may start an explosion in how gold is
transported from the dirt to private ownership of the peoples of the world.

Warning! If you do not see a wonderfull & inspiring Picture here,
then please reward yourself and click on above url and your eyes
will feast upon a delightful view of the following golden location.
... Burnt River Canyon's ancient river beds sprawl throughout
Roy and Pat Valentine's patented property.
Note: You may wonder as I do, what is an "patented property" mentioned above.
Studying the photo of their spread shown above,
looking East from their gated entrance,
Roy points out two unmistakable,
mineralized zones of rich pocketed gold ore,
containing "free-milling" placer gold
as well as gold still embedded in sparkling-grayish sulfides.
Yes you heard correct, "still embedded" waiting and available.
Roy, nicknamed "Old Sweetheart" reminisced how the state of Oregon
banned area gold prospectors a few years back when cutting through
Interstate 84's curve, visible in the above photographed canyon.
Why Roy was given this nickname, and by who, I have no idea.
"The oldtimers were hauling out dirt by the bucketsful from that cut,
as fast as the state could dig it up. Some old panners got 1/2 oz of
gold per day before they got run off," he chuckled.
Basking in Eastern Oregon's warm desert sun over 7 months a year,
Blue Bucket Gold Diggings mine is a new exploration site, surrendering
its gold to the experienced heavy equipment operator, Roy Valentine.
He and wife, Pat, are both native Oregonians and a professional mining
team for over 37 years.
Carving hillsides with a big yellow backhoe or a front-end bucket loader,
"Old Sweetheart" and Pat constantly probe their towering riverbanks,
exposing veins before scraping bedrock clean,
feeding their voracious 100+ cubic yard per day gold trommel.
"Old Sweetheart" and Pat now want to share their years of profitable
hardrock as well as placer gold mining experiences with the public.
Hundreds daily whiz by their Lookout Mtn, I-84, Oregon Exit 338 gold mine.
Illegally lining I-84 with cars and semi's, people often watch mesmerized
while Roy runs the big trommel.

Roy and Pat are the FIRST GOLD MINING PROFESSIONALS on any continent
to harness the power of the internet and combine it with an actual
commercial mining operation!
Dubbing it "Operation Virtual Mining,
"miners" Valentine are trendsetters in the new millenium!
They are first to offer anywhere on the 'net to any consumer in the world,
ACTUAL PHYSICALLY MINED GOLD, straight from the earth to the retail buyer!
This new breed of cyber-goldbuyer can now cut out the middleman
and buy directly from the commercial goldmine operators' Valentine.
Roy and Pat are creating this ultimate in "sweetheart deals",
by making it possible for people they have never met,
to buy gold direct from the mine, for the new millenium and beyond!
For a modest $100 per trommel shift share "grubstake",
(limited to 24 shares per 3 hour gold trommel shift)
"Old Sweetheart" and Pat will mine real gold for any cyber-citizen
whether or not they are able to actually come onsite to watch the big
trommel operate.
For each $100 purchase,
each BLUE BUCKET VIRTUAL MINER can buy a single gold split,
up to and including
purchasing all 24 splits of a single 3 hr GOLD trommel shift,
in this ongoing, commercial Blue Bucket Gold Diggings mining operation.
Most 3 hour shifts have harvested approximately 2 troy ozs,
with some sessions recovering more gold.
Each trommel run's gold yield varies,
depending on whether or not Roy hits a hidden high yield gold pocket,
in the overburden he is mining
from undisturbed canyon walls piled atop ancient bedrock.
Blue Bucket Gold Diggings operations have always been the "perfect marriage"
between man and machine!
And now, "Old Sweetheart" and Pat have added a new wrinkle to this "marriage":
