My lawyers can prove these pictures are not fake. I know the shore all to well, so imagine going across country and still needing four wheelers, sat phone, and all kinds of other equipment, provisions and supplies. Ive had to walk on foot twice, my phone dies extremly quick. In fact Ive had to navigate by memory on my way out. The longest Ive been able to set foot there was maybe an hour by myself. It is extremly dangerous!

As I am sure you know already, over 200 different people have all claimed to have found the Lost Dutchman's gold mine since 1891 when Jacob Waltz died. And in over 200 different places. The early claimants all had gold to show, which however was unlike the gold found in the candle box under Waltz's deathbed. In modern times almost none of the claimants have any gold at all to show.

This Lost Dutchman's gold mine was said to be the "richest gold mine in the world" and supposedly Waltz said that there was "enough gold showing in the mine to make millionaires of twenty men" and this stated when gold was selling for $20.67 per ounce. If you could get that price, most were happy to get $18 an ounce on the frontier. It is easy to say "I found the lost Dutchman mine!" but without some kind of solid proof to back it up, such a claim falls in with the over 200 others that all said THEY had found it and in another place entirely.

Can you post some photos of the ore vein in place?

How about the mine shaft itself?

How about a few good photos of ore samples you got from the mine?

These would help you prove your case quite a lot, thanks in advance. Also, it usually raises red flags for most of us when someone appears out of the internet and instantly starts asking about money and financing. It is what scammers usually do, so when you posted it that is why you got the responses you did, nothing personal about it.

Its illegal to take any gold from this spot, Its on federal land. I got One pic of the hundred caves i found because the area drains the phone battery horribly... Even with the phone off.

Unfortunately the photos don't have GPS coordinates stored in them.

 

[Roger Rantz]

Would you put the gps coordinates out for the public. Again that is what my lawyer is for. Also to prove that captain Pauline Weaver founded the placer mines in the area of my pics.

As a rockhound you can legally remove a small amount of rocks. It used to be something like 150 pounds per person per year, but I think it has been drastically reduced to something like ten pounds per person per year. Besides, you don't need to remove it at all to take PHOTOS of the gold and ore vein as well.

That looks to me like a natural cave, not a mine. The lost Dutchman mine is a shaft, although the alternate description includes both a tunnel and a shaft. Either way it should have a mine shaft, dug out by humans with tools, PERHAPS with the aid of blasting powder but doubtful, it would not be a natural cave. It is extremely, extremely rare to find gold in a natural cave, due to the natural geological processes that create caves is not conducive to the deposition of the gold bearing quartz veins. Conversely, the quartz veins are naturally very resistant to the forces that normally form caverns.

Not trying to be a hard nose by putting some words in BOLD type there, it was just for emphasis. The written word usually comes across much more harshly than intended. No offense intended amigo, and by the way WELCOME TO TREASURENET! Or some might say the booby-hatch as most folks view all treasure hunters as being crazy! After you have been here a while and you see a new person arrive online claiming they found the LDM (Lost Dutchman's Mine) fairly frequently, you will agree that we have to be cautious about passing out those congratulations when SO many different folks are all claiming they found the LDM and always in a different place!

I take it then that you have not found any gold at your site? Do you have a decent metal detector?

I feel the need to talk about these pictures you posted...

You are looking from "above" to locate "symbols" or "items"... BUT... and no offense meant... this is like looking at the clouds for clues.

The structures that indicate "the way" to the mine were seen from normal viewing from distances on foot... not space.

A view from space does nothing to indicate any formations other than similar anomalies that you are "seeing" what you want to see.

View from space VS view from ground does not equal each other.

Perhaps I should also point out that the reason no one has been able to relocate this mine is due to a massive flood and massive earthquake which has been documented as "defacing" the area and the peaks in 1887.

Changing BOTH views forever.
