In other news, Miners de-stabilize the emergency spillway at the Oroville dam prospecting for gold! Thousands flooded out of their homes! On the bright side, the massive flood triggered a gold rush within a gold rush!

I've been drooling over those videos of all the destruction. :P. While I realize the concern, I just can't help it.

I'd like to know if that was back-filled or not. Where are they dumping all that material?

I like that rotary digging machine, 3500 yards an hour isnt too shabby. The doo dad for tipping train cars was also pretty nifty. I wonder how much gold those guys found waterflushing all that bedrock.

Coming from Florida to visit Grandkids, in Oakland, CA would like to take kids to your property to pan for gold. How far are you from Oakland?
