20-acre Gold Mining Claim North Russian Creek – major tributary to the North Fork Salmon River CA!!
NRC GOLD #8
CA106696148
Where are you mining this year? Will you be able to dredge on it?
THE CURRENT PRICE OF GOLD IS OVER $2700 AN OUNCE - A FANTASTIC TIME TO OWN A GOLD MINE!
CHECK THIS 20-ACRE GOLD MINING CLAIM WITH 1700 FEET OF NORTH RUSSIAN CREEK W DREDGING!!
Additional exciting note, we are offering its adjacent sister claim, NRC GOLD #4, on a separate listing – pick them both up for a RARE 40-acre claim on the N. Russian Creek!!
This amazing claim sits amidst dozens of past producing mines and patented claim!! The North Russian Creek sits in the middle of the drainage from over thirty past producers, a bunch of patented claims and flows into the North Fork of the Salmon River which is considered the richest little river in the US, a storied place that started all the gold rush back in the day!
The claim itself sits on a large low-pressure bar where pounds of gold are possible to be found. It quite literally sits right in the middle of 28 past producing mines as well as multiple patented claims. All major storm activity should drain prosperous new and high-grade material to this claim, adding to its already high heavy values.
It is nearly impossible to find claims in this area – let alone one with fantastic access! There’s a well-established mining/logging road off Sawyers Bar Rd that leads to a phenomenally open, level area to set up camp and is right on the river. No other claims in this area can boast this type of access and the fact the area has not been worked in decades due to less-than-optimal access is just begged to be worked.
RECLAMATION DREDGING IS LEGAL IN CALIFORNIA!
We are more than happy to walk you through the process - and it does not need yet another free-driven permit!
Essentially, the claim sits within the richest stretches of the North Fork of the Salmon River – the beginnings of amazing prospecting and mining. Crevicing logical gold traps and panning that material down can reveal loads of big fat flakes, fines, and chunky gold nuggets. Sniping around rocks can be very rewarding.
The area is remote, incredibly beautiful, with an extremely clean and clear river that’s not too big nor too small. The Salmon River watershed is undammed and is not polluted leading to a unique and extremely rare property that isn’t found anywhere else in the world.
Recreational gold finding methods abound on the property and support a variety of gold finding and detecting operations on either side of the river. You can work the site for an immediate return or just hold onto it as an investment, with gold hitting $2700 an ounce it’s a sure bet.
The town of Etna is less than 30 miles away to the Northeast, where restaurants, groceries, an RV Park, and fuel are available along with hotel and campsites.
This is a property where you should see good gold in your riffles at every cleanup, not just specks.

NOTE You are bidding on 100% ownership of the entire claim.
Here's what the winning bidder will receive:
* Exclusive mineral rights to the land - as long as you keep up with the maintenance payments to BLM yearly, it cannot be taken away from you.
* A notarized quitclaim deed sent via UPS/FedEx with tracking information within 7 days of the winning bid and full payment received
* Paper and Digital map along with precise directions to your new claim!
* A new metal claim sign
* Our assistance - we're always happy to help and answer questions!
NOTE: You are welcome to visit the claim to do some sample panning yourself - only "Hands and Pans". Other methods remove way too much 'free' gold. Before you visit you need to email us your contact information including phone number and what you intend on doing on the claim. If all sounds above board, we will email you approval - and you're off to the races!
IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT AN UNPATENTED MINING CLAIM IS AND WHAT YOU WOULD BE BIDDING ON SPECIFICALLY, PLEASE REACH OUT AND ASK. The winning bid does NOT own the land, an "Unpatented Mining Claim" means you own the "Mineral Rights" to the land and NOT the land itself. The land itself is still owned by the Federal Government. All paperwork is current and has been filed with the BLM and county the claim is located in. You are responsible for knowing all the rules and regulations of what you are bidding on. If you have the successful bid, we will assume you know exactly what you bid on and will hold the bidder to paying for the claim.
You are allowed to prospect the surface material of your claim including panning, sluicing, dry washing, metal detecting, and rock hounding for all precious metals and minerals (not just gold).
As with ALL UNPATENTED MINING CLAIMS on Forest Service land, you must file a "Plan of Operation" for any extensive mining operations beyond casual prospecting with the U.S. Forest Service.
All paperwork and fees are current through September 1st, 2025. It is registered with BLM and recorded with the county as well.
You may not sell "sand and gravel" from your claim, only precious metals, and minerals. Check with the Bureau of Land Management if in doubt.
You may not build a personal residence of any kind.
You cannot (at this time)"patent" this, or any unpatented mining claim. Which means you cannot purchase the land from the Government for residential use. Mining claim "patents" have not been granted since 1992 and will take an act of Congress to do so again.
You may camp on your claim for two weeks if not prospecting, and you may camp virtually as long as you want if you are actively prospecting. Always check with BLM about extended camping related to prospecting. You can also recreate, hunt, quad, swim, horseback ride and do any activity besides prospect.
Once a placer claim is staked and filed with the proper agencies, it must be maintained on an annual basis. Proof that it is properly maintained must be filed with the appropriate County, and State office of the BLM on or before 12 noon, September 1st of each year.
Mining Claims are considered "real property" and as such, can be sold, leased, and transferred to family members. As long as you complete your paperwork and pay your yearly fees on time, your mining claim CANNOT be taken from you.
The owner of an unpatented mining claim may either, pay the annual $200.00 yearly maintenance fee or, perform a minimum of $100 worth of annual labor or improvements (EXAMPLE: Road improvement, clearing overgrown vegetation from access road, trash removal, etc.) on each claim by filing a Small Miners Waiver. You may file this waiver if you own 10 claims or less nationwide. (Check with the BLM for that fee amount.)
PAYMENT arrangement is due within 24 hours of the successful bid. We now accept Debit Card, Major Credit Cards, Zelle, Cash App, Venmo, Cashier's Check, Personal Check and Money Orders for payment. If paying by check, we will hold the quitclaim deed for 7 business days until payment clears both banks. If a payment agreement is struck, a non-refundable 25% good faith deposit will be required along with the payment terms.
We are real miners and prospectors and love to chat about all things gold mining and prospecting! Feel free to reach out to Mac at 425.476.0131
