mn90403 Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 There is a bit of gold in South Pass, Wyoming. I went there on my trip to see the total eclipse. This is a pretty good story about the region.

snakejim Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Neat place! Had some friends in Lander. I did some prospecting there about 25 years ago. I found a nice vein in an open cut and took out some nice gold in a pocket. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostMiner Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I've actually thought of investing in a mining project in Wyoming or Montana. It would need to be either permitted or permit ready. Something with a crew & equipment in place as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
