#1 There are proper ways to file mining claims. Some of these folks try to pass off a small commercial operation off as recreational panning. Gets especially bad if they in effect claim a certain area and discourage others from working it.

If they had outbuildings and equipment that is a commercial operation on public lands and needs to be dealt with as such.

#2 No. This is they sort of BS the BLM is pulling because it's getting more and more ~~Green~~ aggressive as its urban masters dictate. One of my neighbors here in the Black Rock Desert has been mining the same opal claim for 30 years. In the last year, the BLM has suddenly come up with all sorts of reasons why he should be thrown off the land he's lived on almost since he got back from Nam.

Why, do you ask? Because the BLM is making way for more "Wilderness Areas." All part of the undeclared class war urban Americans are waging on rural Americans. If once can even consider city-dwellers to be genuinely American.

I don't.
