Virgin ground
remains available, but once it is gone, so is our opportunity to share
it with others. Our intent is that each one who accompanies us on one
of our trips finds what they are looking for. Whether it's the experience
itself, finding of their own gold or real golden treasure. So reserve your space today!!!
Oregon Gold Trips, a partnership of
4 seasoned miners, invites YOU to take a step back in time to the year
1859 when one of the RICHEST and most extensive mining districts in all
of Oregon was found and staked. From that year until now, our properties
have produced more than $10 million in GOLD NUGGETS and DUST. Large nuggets
are found even today by our guests, and as the old saying goes, `Finders
Keepers' during our trips.
This properties
are truly historical masterpieces as a leisurely walk through the grounds
will reveal discarded relics from earlier mining endeavors. Flumes are
left behind from the old hydraulic era. Also, a ancient water gates
hand made from wood cut and milled on there is still standing. As one
might expect, there is more than one sluice box that can be identified
and in a state of deterioration.
A clear and
distinctive transition can be determined between virgin ground and the
old workings. Tree stumps well over 100-years old give visible evidence
of ground untouched by the old-timers. We make every effort to keep
YOU in this VIRGIN material.
We offer you
the option of working on a operation which includes a a backhoe and
high-bankers or you may also choose to work alone with a small dredge
or high-banker. The choice is entirely yours. We suggest you mine the
ground recommended by one of the miners on staff, but you are entirely
free to try your luck on a spot of your choosing as well. Either way,
the ground normally produces some nice jewelry grade gold and an occasional
nugget.
This is YOUR
opportunity to experience first hand the finding of GOLD in it's natural
state on a historic real mining property known for it's historical wealth
in gold values.
Samples of Gold Found!
MINING STAFF: We are on site and managing the operations while providing
you with guidance, if necessary or if requested. We also provide training
and willingness to share our experiences for you to be the most productive
as possible in finding your own gold to keep.
Limited Guests:
Our trips are limited to small groups
of 12 people. Larger groups are possible if our guests provide their
own food and accommodations, however we make an effort to keep the groups
small to provide personal and effective support from our staff.
