Patented Mining Claims for Sale in Silverton Colorado

The TV series, “Gold Rush” depicting gold-mining in the Yukon of Alaska, has dramatically increased the interest in looking for this precious metal not only as a hobby but as a profit-making venture. With gold running at approximately $1900 per ounce, it wouldn’t take too many ounces for prospectors to get really excited. These properties offer you a great opportunity to catch “Gold Fever”. The Minnehaha claim has extensive tunneling and thousands of dollars of assay work already performed. The Los Mountain has a small little stream where you could pan for gold. Unlike Tony Beets who collected a 20-25% royalty from Parker Schnabel, only a small royalty will be retained by the current and/or previous owners.
