Status On TAYOPA

G'morning Mc 4500, I suggest that we go out into the patio for a nice hot cuppa coffee and relax. I did not see your post, but Apparently a friend of mine extended his lance in my defense, for which I thank him, & humbly ask the Mods to consider his long time presence here and of the many, many excellent informative posts and the high opinions held by many of the others in here, and reinstate him.

So, back to your problem in the Superstitions? Incidentally, I can guarantee that Tayopa is NOT north of the border, especially in the superstitions.

Sent you a PM........
 

Hello Mr. Don, you have shared a lot. I enjoy the maps and clues you give. I wish I was able to come help as I would just for the hunt. I may be assuming too much, but you don't have the exact location yet? Or have you answered and I didn't read it. I enjoy your post. I was wondering about your coat of arms, can you share what it means? Is this the same mine with the Iron Door?
 

G'morning Sr Casco: estamos in the patio, join us.

You asked -->you don't have the exact location yet?

You cottin pickin right that I do, to the meter.:icon_thumleft: However until certain guarantees are met, it will remain closed. Many cannot understand this. Since I know exactly where it, and the escape tunnel, are, they ask "why I am not frantically trying to open it up for curiosity, if nothing else" .

However, since I first gained title to it some 10 years ago, just about that I was hit with terminal neck cancer, it was sent to the back burner. Since I am now officially the Golden Boy for my Cancer team - absolutely no sign of cancer, my interest has blossomed again, but after so much time of being unable to do anything with it, the burning desire to open it 'right now' has dimmed.

As for financial gain, I am working on another part of the complex for that - soon $$?? As mentioned, we just filed upon another 2000 hectares (now approx,6000 + 'acres' ) with plans for another 600 hectares in the near future, we are nicely covered. We will have an aerial survey done in the next week or so.

As for the logo, my son drew that for our co. Logo. It represents the document that Flipper found in the archives in Spain while doing research for Col Greene on Tayopa. "on the 7th of March from the Cerro de La Campana in Chihuahua, the Sun will be setting over Tayopa, some 10 days ride to the west. Absolutely correct !

The Logo shows the sun setting in the Barranca de Barbarrocos between Tayopa to the right and a prominent land mark to the left.

Of course the Bell and tools are self explanitory.

As for the iron door it curiously enough is indicated on Dobies map, plus an Indan gal from the area told us that one day as she and her husband had dropped down into the barranca, they both saw it. It was half covered, but the area had a special type of indicator and was of an unusual location - well what do you expect on internet ? heheh.

She confided all of this to us in return for a promise to take her God daughter to see an eye doctor to have an operation if possible, naturally we agreed - she apparantly didn't know that we consider the Guayijiros as partners in Tayopa, and such things would be covered, if and when we recover any values.

Saludos

Been following this for awhile congrats on beating cancer. I hope you make it available for tours someday as I would love to visit. I do understand why you keep it sealed. it sounds exciting for sure.

Hola Don Jose,

I too am pleased to hear of your victory against "la pelona", and am happy to read your posts once again. I hope it won't be long before they realize what is best for Mexico's economy, and grant you those guarantees.

Even though I am not a Guayijiro, I am glad that you consider them as partners in Tayopa. :occasion14:

col. green...probably the beginning of the term gringo...a true ugly American...called in the Arizona rangers to put down a mine strike...they actually crossed the border, shot the one man who supported green an burned his general store...
what a weird period of borderland history.
 

Just checking in to see if there have been any updates in the past couple of years? No news on the Mexican gov providing guarantees?
 

Real, Amigo
hmmmmmmmmmm,Mango's, let me count the way's, first with the purty,then hmmmmmmmm.:dontknow: np:cat:
 

Real, Amigo
:dontknow:In the Supe's, Is this guy serious, what book has he been reading, HA HA HA,:BangHead::BangHead:this earns him a triple cat.:cat::cat:np:cat:
 

Happy Father's Day gentlemen. Wishing you all a lifetime of health, happiness, and (golden) prosperity!

All the best-
Justin
 

Oro I have often wondered in any connection with growing into the "golden years". I find myself not needing diapers, or anything else. I have no arthritus, no Alsheirmers ( despite crude suggestive remarks) eyes relativly good, slightly over weight, from living a computer life. But in genral no nature's problems, all man caused. In other words I still find myself raring to go.

So when are we going to Tayopa or El Naranjal?

Give me 2 years to retire, 1 year or so to get things settled out, and i'll go with you Oro won't, because he thinks it in Durango or Sinaloa or somewhere else than where you know it is. El Naranjal was always my favorite lost mine story, for some reason.

SF, Oro is an assoc. unwilling, but still one. We'll talk about this later :coffee2::coffee2::coffee2: :laughing7::laughing7::laughing7: I'll be 95 then. Sides I can't be sure that tts Naranjal other than it meets al particulars except for the state.
