A man named sailor jack didnt know a thing about mining but when he came into the california gold rush he was determined to strike it rich. he decided to try his luck at newtown in el dorado county. The day he got there some more expierenced miners decided to pursuade him to get a claim on where they knew there was no gold. But it turns out sailor jack did discover another valuable spot right on that claim and it has since been known as the one spot mine.
An unnamed miner after the discovery of the one spot mine was prospecting up the hill when he came across another valuable deposit. He carried all the gold he could before returning to camp but when he went back up to mine his discovery again he couldnt find the location and it has since been known as the The Lost Goose Egg mine. It is somewhere north of newtown in the vicinity of goooseneck ravine.
Anyway if the mine really exists than i actually live really close by so i was just wondering if anyone had heard of it and had any more info. I know the lost treasure magizine wrote an article on it but i havent read it yet. Thanks.
