VAIL COLORADO LODE CLAIM GOLD VEIN
GOLD MINING CLAIM OWNERSHIP
OWNER FINANCING
This is a legally registered, 20.66 acre gold and gem LODE Mining Claim for sale, the Resolution Mountain Lode #10, located on Resolution Mountain with road access.
Our claim here is about 25 miles south of the resort town of Vail, in Eagle County, Colorado.
About 10 miles south of the quaint mountain town of Red Cliff.
Eagle County has the feeling of the Old West and is away from all the crowds, noise, and traffic jams of large cities.

Gold prices have reached an all time high of over $3000 per ounce.
Unique location on the side of Resolution Mountain with a mineral vein of quartz/gold running thru the claim.
Camp by nearby Resolution Creek that runs beside the road.

Resolution Creek Road starts at Camp Hale and ends at Ptarmigan Pass: this is a graded road to the top of Ptarmigan Pass which is wide and flat. There are wonderful panoramic views all along the road. The road follows Resolution Creek for its entire length.
Up the road, Resolution Mountain is an easy mountain to access in all seasons with mountain biking through the area (Resolution Gulch), hiking from Hornsilver Mountain, off-roading or come winter, snowmobiling with NOVA Mountain Guides. The one distinguishing fact about Resolution Mountain is that it quietly looms over Camp Hale. This was the famous WWII site where in December of 1942, almost 11,500 troops were stationed in the small valley and where the famous 10th Mountain Division solders trained for alpine and high altitude combat for later deployments in Austria and Germany against the Nazis.

National Forests remained open at all times during the virus with a televised invitation by the Director for families to visit them as safe places for family recreation, making our mining claims some of the safest places for your family to enjoy and get away from all the nonsense.

We feel we are selling more than the gold and minerals on beautiful land.
You would be acquiring an experience that will give you a good feel for what the old time prospectors must have felt during the days of the original Colorado Gold Rush.
A mining claim is an affordable way to enjoy the beauty of the land combined with the adventure of panning for gold.

Owning a mining claim is having access to a lifetime of great family fun and recreation, in a very beautiful, natural setting.

There is a vein of a valuable minerals running thru the whole claim, in this case, quartz, gold, smoky quartz and fluorite.
You can also prospect on the whole claim, including the claim ridges for gems outside the lode mineral vein.
A lode claim has the most potential for finding valuable minerals.

A lode claim differs from our placer claims, as on a lode claim you can dig into the mountain side and can even go to the extent of building a mine shaft.
Having a lode claim is an advantage as you can dig into the claim with a shaft if you choose,
and the nearby creek has some good trout fishing.

Our lode claim has veins of valuable minerals including gold in veins (called lodes) cutting thru rocks.
Quartz and gold are frequently found together and digging into the quartz vein is called chasing the vein.
Veins of quartz, smoky quartz, and fluorite are on the claim.

According to geologists, lode gold deposits are present in many of this areas mountain sides.
The area once prospected by early settlers, these mountains are still considered to contain lode gold.

On the claim I found a quartz vein with gold traces in the rock.
Pick and shovel, rock hammer, metal detector, and is hard rock mining.
I did not expose the whole vein, though was able to follow it going through the claim, intermittently.

The process of lode, hard rock mining, is the process where gold is extracted directly from the lode vein beneath the ground. DIg down about 3 feet as go through the claim, then pick, shovel, and rock hammer working the sides of that hole. Filling in the holes when leave the claim as required by the national forest.
For the use of any machinery, you need to file a Plan of Operation with the BLM for approval.

Scratch your rock ore against an unglazed white ceramic streak plate.
If it's gold, it will leave a golden streak. Or scratch the surface of the specimen with a knife. Gold is a soft metal that will show scratch marks.

Beautifully forested area of pines and aspens.
Large open camping areas are by the claim with a side road to one of them for more privacy.
Known as a great snowmobiling area. See Trail Map with the pictures.

It is also great sign here that the federal govt. has withdrawn nearby areas for minerals and our claims here are located in this mineral rich area.
Located in the Vail Pass Winter Recreation Area allowing for winter access for snowmobiling, cross country skiing, and snowshoeing.

Rockhounding in Colorado
Starting with the rich gold and silver deposits which were the starting point of so many Colorado towns, the Centennial State, with over 770 types of minerals to be found, is second only to California in the number of different gems and minerals statewide.
Colorado is also host to a dizzying array of rocks and minerals. Some of the higher profile include dinosaur fossils.
Colorado can certainly be considered a rockhound and gem hunters dream.
The vast mountains of national forests gives one a newfound sense of exploration and discovery.

Eagle County has a rich history associated with all that makes the West the West. Native American culture, mining, agriculture, ranching and recreation all have played important roles in the countys past.
In 1865 the immortal Lincoln sent a special message to the miners of the West. He said: "Tell the miners for me, I shall promote their interests to the best of my ability, because their prosperity is the prosperity of the nation, and we shall prove in a very few years that we are indeed the treasury of the world. How substantially this prophecy has been fulfilled is demonstrated in the ever increasing output in gold, silver and other metals in the great West, of which Colorado is the greatest state.
Eagle county has done her share to swell the annual mineral production of the state since 1879, and it may be said the growth of the county was based on the mining industry.
