This is a sneak peak at our new, improved and bigger wash plant. The sun is out the snow is melting and soon you will be able to see some photos of this beast in action. As you have seen, if you have been following the blog, we have been up to the mine this winter. We have done some snow clearing to hurry along spring melt so we can set up our new equipment. Stay tuned for 2013 mining season news and photos, ITS ALMOST HERE!!!
Here you will find a story of a family of five people who are mining for Gold on Quartz creek in Alaska. We work hard, we play hard and these are our tales. Follow along, comment if you like. Ask questions, I am here to provide the reader with information about our. This is not the same Quartz Creek that they have on the Gold Rush Alaska show and I am in no way associated with them, other than I mine for gold.

Its always something.....
So there I was...on the dozer...I ask, "is there gas."...response is,"Yes, just topped it off." As operator I should have looked and since I did not we spent many hours bleeding air and recharging the battery, over and over and over. It was another wonderful and exciting weekend at the gold mine. We learned a lot about the old John Deere 1010 Bulldozer and we managed to dig 22 buckets of Pay dirt out of the frozen ground, with the help of a propane weed burner. You can't pay for day of adventure like that!
