- 1). Search Google for "gold mining vacation" and inspect the search results. Gold mining camps are designated claims that invite the public to dig for gold and keep what they find during the time spent at the gold claim. Gold Fever Prospecting has an open listing of gold camps around the United States that accepts short-term placer gold mine leases to the public.
- 2). Join a prospecting club like goldgold.com that accepts annual dues from its members for the right to choose a property and time of year for mining. The lease renews annually once yearly dues are paid and continues for the life of the member. This lease option through membership allows for the spouse and child to accompany the miner on the gold claim.
- 3). Propose a temporary use lease on existing private claims that operate year-round in the fourteen major gold-mining states. Contact the Bureau of Land Management to purchase claim and mineral rights maps that designate the claim and owners. Research provides more opportunity to discover a lost mine that is unprocessed and ready to produce high concentrates of gold.
- 4). Sign a contract or lease agreement with the land owner detailing the rights you have while on the claim. Have the lease notarized and keep a copy with you while on site.
