Hi everyone,
We have yet to start running dirt unfortunately. Long days have been put in getting all the equipment ready to go. The last couple days have involved alot of work. We seem to be close but run into small problem after problem especially today. Some of the problems include bolting down the pump and diesel engine, leaks in the pump, and not having the right cam locks to connect the hose to the trommel. The grizzly has been built and attached to the trommel. For those of you who do not know what a grizzly is it put over the trommel to stop large rocks from going through.
The good news is the price of gold is trading at a record near $1585 an ounce. It is a good thing because the costs are staring to add up.
So far I have bought:
Trommel
New 10hp diesel engine
Hose with camlocks
Grizzly
Grease gun and grease
Diesel
Gas
Countless bolts,nuts, washers
Rented
Mini Excavator
Hopefully we start running dirt and find some yellow soon.
All the best,
Gold Miner James
P.S. A video tour of the mine site will be uploaded later tonight
