Well, I am sure you know of Osceola. Nearly all of the land out there is claimed and some exploring is needed. However thats the thing about prospecting - you study and explore and sample to find your own spots.
I was there once nd there has been a lot of placer work done in the Vally's with the loads up in the hills.
I checked at the BLM office in Ely about the land status and it is heavily claimed. But the surrounding area might produce some finds.
I meet a couple of guys at the Rich Hill Outing a couple of years ago from this area and they where packing nice nuggets. They said you just need to know where to look. _________________ Everett

Chris and Everett Thanks for the replys I'v been to the Oscola area once but need tospend a lot more time over there I'll just have to hunt around the outside of the claimed up areas and see what I can find. thanks again for the input George H.
chris new at this if i drive all the way from mo to hunt how can i find a place to hunt thats not someone claim dont what to go where i will get in trouble
The simple answer is to join a club like the GPAA and prospect on their claims.
You can do research and find your own spots, but the "how to" on that is probably 30 pages of text. I am writing a book that will include that info, but it probably wont be published until next summer. Until then, see the simple answer above.

Hi Bob,
I think metal detecting in NV state parks is prohibited. I'm not 100% sure. I asked a Park Ranger at Rye Patch lake last year and was told no. Just tell her about the Emigrant trail right outside the park.
