Great video educational easy to follow nice job jeff
thanks@@_TONY_Az
Merry Crimbo from Edinburgh Scotland with respect Jeff.
Hope you and Mrs Jeff have a cracker of time.
😂😂😂😂 so many claims in places where no gold .
wait till it expires and file it for super cheap? LOL
I will never file a claim. I live in the deep south. Yet I watched the whole video and truly enjoyed it. You are an incredible teacher. Keep doing what you do. We enjoy it.
thanks
🤣same
I did the same thing watching @Ramitheicon buy sneakers for an hour and I don't know crap about sneakers!! Now I'm hooked so I feel ya! I will be filing claims soon and this video was extremely helpful. You never know you may decide gold mining is for you. I mean I just purchased 4 pairs of collector sneakers!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Never say never. 😊
I live near Tampa Florida. Anything worth prospecting for here even if we could?
I salute you.
I was digging fence post in the Pocono’s when I was 17 with a buddy of mine full throttle with a two man auger , we hit a tire under the ground at 3/4’ in the ground and the clutch didn’t let go but my buddy did!!! Screwed up my elbow and it’s been hurting for 25 years now !! They will tear you up lol
Ouch lol me to out here in az a rock at the right angle I made a rig after that. I share the ouch
Some people think they can file a placer claim in any orientation they want. However, they must actually follow the aliquot grid system and describe it under PLSS on the paperwork. SO MANY people file thier claims improperly 🙄
Jolly good episode Sonny Jim ! ⛏⛏👍👍
exactly my brother .... thanks and hope to see you out in the Goldfields with Boulderdash next time.
Thanks to both of you... I now have my first gold claim in AZ!... I've been watching and following you both for a long time . Keep the dream alive!
🙄. It SHOULD NOT be this difficult imo. And with FEDERAL GOVT being a SCAM now a days = hopefully some of these “procedures” can be simplified with the only requirement being the part where you file the claim with the LOCAL recording offices…… but very informative information, THANK YOU for laying it out so well 🍻
Buy my corner marker is 500 yards on the side of the mountain, i dont have enough cord.
Put a COPY in the tube and Keep the Original paperwork at home, you may need to replace it from time to time.
Put your paperwork in a Ziploc bag in case it rains.
Great information as always!! 👍 Properly filing a claim can be confusing without step-by-step guidance like this.
thanks Joanne , I know...right
Great video, Jeff. Loaded with important info for all of us. Thanks for putting this together, especially some of those concerns. Merry Christmas Brother !! 🎅🎄🎁🤠⚒️⛏️👍
Thanks my brother from another mother ..... you betcha .... Merry Christmas
Thank you so much for helping out those of us that have the dream of owning a mining claim. That is very generous.😊
Any time!
I’ll be rewatching this video for sure, planning on filing my first lode claim in near future for Arizona. After watching sunny Jim’s videos on claims, I’m confident I’ll be successful. Thanks Jeff
you betcha
That's Jeff not Sunny Jim!

Correct me if I am wrong, you are supposed to actually “discover” a mineral before you go and stake it! Some people and companies I believe blanket claim ground without actually making a legal discovery.
Your correct. You must first discover a " locatable mineral" to stake a legit location claim. The people and companies that do that are trying to run some type of scam with mineral estate.
You are allowed to claim the ground the vein is running into already by the science of where you are without opening it up. Right now they are fighting the right to dump the dirt on non mineral ground next to the open pit, unlike any mine in the past. Big companies are great for blanket claiming, but its lodes so the surface is usually still open for collectors.
With a placer claim how would they know? Lode there has to be something in place but..
11:55 “I didn’t know there was a claim here” LOL. Like TVR exploring did on my claims. He just posted a video a few days ago.
I got signs and locked gates. Signs were ignored and gate locks cut! I was furious!
He actually kinda apologized, but still, they saw the signs and gates and CHOSE to go past anyway.
My mines have sentimental value to me, on top of gold. My mentor Tim Fadda died in my arms there. I promised him, I would carry on his work and reopen the mine. Or die trying.
I hope to meet you someday and swap stories. I could learn a lot more from you.
Excellent video!
Merry Christmas!
Take care!
Signs and gates don't mean much, because so many mines are abandoned that still have those in place. My area is all lead mines..the lead companies from the 1880s STILL operate..just not in my area since the 60s. The only signs or gates are at the main facility..30miles away. But they own the land under my house/town still for mineral rights.
I saw that video as well, and i would have guessed abandoned as well because it just looks like it. The entrance wasn't closed off with a signs...i mean kinda of easy.
@@Dranzerk8908 respectfully, you are wrong regarding TVR’s video. He didn’t show you the signs or locked gates in his video, how convenient. The locked gate was just past the portal entrance.
Wow !!!! really sorry to hear that ....would love to swap stories with you some day ... let us know what we can do to help you get that mine back up and running
@@Askjeffwilliams Thanks Jeff! How about reposting your “timbering series” videos?
The portal on my mine has since collapsed due to rotting and weak timbers. My plan is to rebuild the portal first, then refresh the mine.
If you are interested, I would love to show you my mines. I would love to learn more about timbering and working underground. I would be interested in helping you out as well with your mine. Just let me know.
I hope you never get anyone coming onto your claims and poking around without permission. It really gets one’s blood boiling!
Take Care!
Thank you Jeff we are going to file our first claim this year on an old hard rock gold mine. And were excited. ❤
thats great Craig ...keep us posted on that
When you are at your counties office, look thru their land books and you can find patented claims and if you know how you can find out the owner of them. Patented claims now pay taxes on them to the county and you can check and see if the taxes are up to date.
Once property enters the tax roles, it is always owned, never open to claim for free again.
you can do that online now too
edit. The County sheriffs office usually runs the auction once a year.@@Askjeffwilliams
Thanks for this video. Very good information spelled out very easily.
You could call it, Filing a gold claim for dummies 👍🏻
I have a Ryobi 40V electric auger. No need for a generator. I took it out in the desert and started making a hole and nearly ripped my arm off when it his a rock. I recommend the electric auger because I had originally bought a gas unit. I had problems running it in different areas because if the altitude is too high, the carb jets don't like it and it doesn't want to run. The battery powered Ryobi doesn't have this problem. There are plenty of videos of the unit demoed on UA-cam. I couldn't find a negative review of the unit. I couldn't be happier with mine.
Great times indeed fam 😎. Happy holidays 🎄🎊😊. Gold Squad Out 🤠
thanks Gold Squad ....you to
Old King Tut was a merry old soul.
yes he was with that beautiful Muddy Creek formation
Indeed, I know it well@@Askjeffwilliams
Good morning from Southeast South Dakota
Extremely informative

Perfect walkthrough! Amazing detailed information!
Merry Christmas Sunny Jim....!!!
Wish it was like this in GA and Ala
Definitely the man to ask if you want information on anything mining
thanks
Thanks Jeff 🤠
you betcha
I smashed that like button so hard
now you're talking
@@Askjeffwilliams I absolutely love your channel I've been going back in time to catch up on everything you've ever put in UA-cam and patreon your great man.
Ziplock bag and drain hole on the bottom cap.
Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and Lila, and your loved ones.
Great video Jeff! Youre definitely the pro! Merry Christmas to you and your family and Heavy Pans for your Happy New Year!
thanks....Merry Christmas to you to
Great Christmas present! I needed this
Good stuff Jeff. That bit about 10hp will be a big help....
I just bought my own 40 acres in the Bradshaw Range Arizona. I’m excited! Any advice?
sample, sample, sample
Hey neighbor! I live in mayer! That place is full of it! The big bug is across the street from me and is still producing. Happy hunting!
Thanks again
Merry Cristmas Jeff and Family Regards Norway
thanks and you to my friend
Just weeded out the majority of those interested in claims! But damn good info!
That’s a big nugget of knowledge that’s useful right there.
Great video
I am working on trying to file my first claim
You can do it!
Hey Jeff, is it true Harbor Freight sells claim jumpers? Lol! For either placer or load! Lol!..... Happy Holidays once again "somebody" brother...⚒️⚖️🤙🎄🤠
Just nailed my own 40 acres off North Stockton Hill in Kingman, found an old prospect on historical USGS maps close by on state trust land.
thats great
My godfather used to live in that big house on Lead Street in Kingman….early 1960s.
The person in charge of the local BLM office has a major impact on your prospecting and mining activities. They interpret (or even ignore) their own rules to their advantage, not yours. When I first filed more than four years ago, I was not allowed to even dig a signal of my metal detector with a plastic scoop until I filed for a bond. They totally ignored their own published "recreational prospector's" guidelines. Fortunately, that all changed with a new local office head. Now, they are very helpful and friendly, and having a geologist in the local BLM office is a major benefit. Bonding is still a bit of a sticky issue, however, when it comes to surface contours, vegetation, surface soil quality and water run-off (rain) when doing your claim's reclamation.
The cancellation is in the regulations. Only the rich can play to go big.
Thanks Jeff W. appreciate the challenges you share with Us.
Great Video as usual! As a local Native I always wondered how to open a claim.
It's very try place
i've found gold in open area. and people know. you dont need to file anything. just find land most cant (walk) to. (get into hiking). then find gold. 👍👍👍👍👍. just saying. thats all. have a good day.
Best instructional video on the topic on the internet. Good job
thanks
Good advertising for gold locations
Merry Christmas to you and Lila last night shiny out there for next year and you're going to find it Happy New Year🎁🎀🎅🎄🤶
Very interesting
I live in Minnesota. I’d like to just rent a claim for a week and spend a week camping and mining.
This is great information.. i have thought about moving forward the Midwest with the family. This is something I would be interested in moving to
Excellent vid on how to get a claim, sure saved me allot of time ! Whoo Raaa !
thanks
Thank you, Jeff. You have now cleared up many of my questions. I am sure that at some point there will be a public comment period and EIS at either or both the County of Federal level for anything beyond using a shovel and pan. That should quash any thought of using a backhoe.
Hi Jeff, I wanted to say Merry Christmas! Thank you for all of the information and ability to make us dream of the possibilities! Take care, Mark
Thanks Mark ...you too my brother
🎄 MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎅
Cheers Jeffy boy.
Thanks for the education & entertainment over the years.
Happy Christmas Eve, thanks for the video. ⛏️👍
thanks and you to
The only claim i needed is the land i like to buy for make my home....maybe one day😊
500!!! Kenshi is amazing.
All those claims are Slim s 😂. Thanks for the step by step explanation of claims.
Merry Christmas and happy new year to you and Lila 😊.
I hope you got Lila what she really wanted 😊
Hi Tina , always our pleasure ....Merry Christmas .....and have a Golden New Year .... Yes I did
@@Askjeffwilliams good man
Great video. I know of a claim that is closed now due to not paying the fee by September 1st. I will investigate when winter is over. Too much snow curreny.
C'mon, let's all go file a claim! Just kidding. Merry Christmas, Jeff & Lilia!
Always great information from Jeff the Great!
hahhahahhaha thanks , you to
Appreciate You laying it all out for us! Enjoyed it!
Thanks 😊
Merry Christmas Jeff and a Hi to Mrs. Claus in the background too! Great information.
Love the info!! I live up in the Pacific Northwest, your guidance means a lot, especially for the beginning prospector. Thank you brother for the information.
Awesome! Thank you!
Thanks, Jeff Williams, for your informative dialog, and great enthusiasm. I enjoy your show. I had a good friend in Vegas, where I went to High School, whose name was Jeff Williams. Ron Wood (Gold Star Father)
could be me ...thats my area
Always so helpful to our golden community. I hope you have a great Christmas and a golden 2024 Jeff
Thanks, you too!
The deserts of the west have very favorable geology for metals, the lack of water is what hampered development. That and the tendancy of prospectors to follow the newest claim to get rich quick and ignore whats around and in between. ...
Harbor Freight..A prospector's Paradise.Great Prospecting advice..as always!💪
You got that right!
So like $200 a year to rent 20 acres you can screw around and camp on all year, just keep some shovels and augers around and dig sometimes.
I'm definitely saving this video. Thanks Jeff! Merry Christmas
you betcha and Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
thanks and you to my brother
5:37 you should really seal the top of those wood posts
Thanks, Jeff!!
thank you , really appreciate that
Jeff this is Gary Morgan. I started a claim posting service back in December and it didn't take off. Only sold one and I am going out to mark off a few. Because it doesn't seem that they are willing to pay for the service they would rather bid. Than have my service for 1500.00 for 20 ac or 20.6
These t n r survey system layouts have been established since 1800s before the railroad checkerboard .
We have some sections over 3 miles long and others broken into lots.
@ResortDog whete are you? I know there are a bunch of odd sections out west primarily due to extream terrain vs surveying technology from 150 years ago. The Los Padres NF has some of the oddest due to both terrain and being the last area moving east to west and things got kinda forced into the spaces. [Not the last to be mapped over all ...that was the Henry's of southern central Utah.. last of the contiguous to be surveyed
On the northern Border of Nevada under Oregon.@@sixfigureskibum

@@Askjeffwilliams I uploaded it a few days ago! Sad things with Oregon thoigh is all the good gold beating regions are 4 hours away in either direction from Portland
“Friends that found 10 ounces per ton” just say slim I know you mean yourself 😬 great information to go with your other video and great answers thanks Jeff and slim for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼

Thanks Jeff for all that detailed information.👍😎
Man...today in Oregon, it's better to just know the laws, get in and get out. If they know your there, we've learned things.
It may cost you more than you'll ever get back.
OUTSTANDING! Thank you so much!
You're very welcome!
Your my favorite prospector
thanks
Great info as always Jeff. Love your videos been watching for years. Just a little info back at ya. They make those augers battery powered now so you don’t have to drag a cord and generator with it. ⛏💪✨⭐️🌟⚖️💰👊
Cool, thanks
Great info Jeff. You answered some questions that I had. Nice. I love all ur videos so surprise me.
use a gps not a phone.
Good info, thanks Jeff. Merry Christmas.

Just another way for the government to have total control of every aspect of our lives.
Great Video Jeff, Merry Christmas Jeff & Lila & crew
thanks and you to
4:50 you mean you are not going to lock your claim with Prince Alpert in a can❓ 🤷♀
Nvm. The subject was about how to open mining claim, not how to find one.
Merry Christmas Jeff!
Thank you, a much needed video.
Great stuff Jeff! Thank you!
I love these informative videos! Thanks for sharing your knowledge Jeff! 🙌🏼
Glad you like them!
