Easy high clearance 2WD near Prescott, AZ

The property has not been worked commercially since the dredge was removed in 1941. Small miners and small operations have held claims but only two operations have applied for permits to do actual recovery. The second of which is still permitted and operating in the area. The existing permitted operation will be extremely helpful streamlining permitting to a new operation. The property has excellent access which can be managed with 2WD in most conditions. Many large staging and parking areas that can be used for processing. There is good, year-round water throughout the property that can be used for mining purposes. The bars have little erosion except that done by the drag buckets in mining pre-1940. There were core samples done in 1930 measuring the depth of the bar. The reports from this drilling showed an average of .08 oz per yard. $1.60 per yard in 1931. $120 per yard in 2019. There were no cores that had little or no value, which was astounding to the geologist who made the report. This is a high value placer operation that could be operated year round. Life of the operation, based on a small operation running 100 yards per day, is at least 18 years. This in working the bank and no accommodation for working the deposits in the Hassayampa river.
