Just a few days after hitting $2800 gold has gone up to $2870 ! $3000 gold might just beat us to springtime !
Dick, New projects ! I’m building my second floater, the new one will have a shaker plant, built lighter, more sluice runs and a 40 foot stacker, the new one will eventually have a house on it much like the old bucket line dredges which will allow me to run very early spring and late fall.

Damn... sounds ambitious Dan! You must be planning on upping your yardage.
I question your sanity on the "more sluice runs" part. If we look up 'glutton for punishment',
we'll see your name! :)

I question my sanity at times too Ha, I’m upping the yardage some but nothing drastic, my existing floater has 3 sluices, 2 on the front screen and one on the rear screen, the new setup is going to have a 2 screen deck, with 2 sluices on each size material, the existing floater could use a 4th sluice now as it gets pretty busy in that sluice at times.

$2900 Gold this morning !! Unreal. I'm thinking Dan might be right, $3,000 by Spring would be just crazy !!!
Creeks are likely to be crawling with "prospectors" this summer.

Gold price went up 3.6% in the last 10 days ! If this trend continues we could see $6000 gold by next year this time…. Wishful thinking..maybe but less than 24 hours after hitting $2900 gold is at $2926 as I type.
