Here is a golden prospecting opportunity!!! This claim is suited for both recreational and professional mining.. located on one of the most desired waterways in the area. This claim incorporates about 2100 feet of creek frontage for prospecting over the 30 acres of excellent gold bearing land. Access to the claim is 4×4 only, but during a recent visit (6/24/25), the area around the claim including access roads were being timbered and leveled for easier access. This off-the-grid claim will require a 4 wheel drive vehicle to navigate the last 2.5 miles of the journey. Privacy is near absolute. Zero traffic. Cell service at the top of the mountain, with intermittent service on the claim. There are 5 surveyed hard rock claims sitting just upstream from the claim. See draft. Reports indicate precious metals are likely to be undiscovered in this American Camp mining district. Considering the difficult weather over the last couple years, the prospect of finding flood gold on this creek may be high. The claim offers a variety of options to prospect for gold.. such as panning, sluicing, sniping, crevicing large areas of bedrock and metal detecting the many gravel bars. I had the best time of my trip here!

Gold mining claims are registered with Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the appropriate county and state agencies. They are considered “real property” and give the rights to extract precious metals from anywhere on the 30 acres of the staked claim. The claim ownership can be bought, sold, leased, transferred, and traded or willed to any US citizen. Other people can do anything else on the claim, camp, hunt, fish or what ever they want.. but not prospect legally. Since this claim is 30 acres, it will require 2 signatures on the paper work. 



The Golden Rose Creek placer claim is just about 11.5 miles down Italian Bar rd. from beautiful Columbia Ca. An additional 1.5 miles down forest route 3N12 is required, plus another half mile on Forest route 3N12B is necessary to get right up to the creek.. it includes a few nice camping areas. I walked this last half mile due to the really bad road conditions. The ruts are deep in spots and the grade is steep.. to get back out. A 4×4 would get you down, but vegetation may need to be cleared on either side of the road to pass. Once on the creek, prospecting was phenomenal. I think one could start a small scale mining operation here with the variety of opportunities found on this creek. Simply put.. I could do something different every day I was there. Live the dream in this remote and secluded area with a chance of becoming wealthy along the way. 

   

Please reach out with any questions or concerns about the claim. I’m more than happy to talk through anything and answer any questions. I will prepare and process all of the appropriate paperwork to transfer the claim to the two names you provide. Once the payment has been completed, a quick claim deed will be issued with your name as legal owner, and registered with BLM and County of Tuolumne, California. You will receive a recorded document in just a few weeks from the time I’m able to file. Most of the photographs here are from my recent trip out. I just filed the “Maintenance Fee Waiver Certification” with the BLM as well as the “Notice of Intent to Hold – Mining Claim” and “Affidavit of Annual Assessment Work” with the county. The county will record/ stamp both, mail them back to me and I will then file those with the BLM including the yearly claim fee. Annual claim fees will be paid by me and will be good through September 1, 2026. Once this process is complete, I can process the Quit Claim and transfer. The BLM isn’t the fastest when transferring claims and having them show up in your BLM portal. I bought another claim in February of this year and am still waiting for it to post to my account. Once yor payment clears, it’s your claim and you are free to prospect away while everything transfers. I just spent seven days at the end of June across my 2 claims. This one is absolutely breathtaking and perfect in every way. I’m only selling it because I want my two small children to be part of the adventure and this one is a little more than they can handle at their ages;)
