The Counsel’s mission is; 1: Bring together all the groups and organizations that are

This is the response I got from Shannon Poe....

Unfortunately, we are pretty packed in for the meeting. Do you guys represent a retailer or gold club? We will be doing a live broadcast of the meeting on the internet so everyone can listen to it as it happens from the comfort of their own home.


We have posted the links on our website and on our Facebook page.


Thank you,



Mr. Shannon Poe

One would think that they would have a big enough spot for additional miners whom want to meet the people running the show. Not just listen to it on the radio?

You must have missed my earlier post where I back peddled that I may have misinterpreted yours & others "likes".
"Thanks Jeff & 2cmorau for your welcome. I interpreted their likes on the first post of this thread as an endorsement when they maybe were just "liking" that it got posted."
Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Another government agency? Are you kidding me? Name me one efficient, competent government agency & one that hasn’t screwed you! “Hi, we’re from the government & we’re here to help you."

I agree 100%. When I first heard about the MMAC and started reading what they were all about, I liked most of it until I came across the stuff about trying them trying to become a federal agency and whatnot. This is the last thing we need, anybody that thinks this could possibly be a good idea (having another federal department entangled with our public lands) needs to get their head examined. We should be trying to dissolve the BLM and USFS's control over mining activities on our lands, not get even more government involvement. That's absurd!
 

I was informed today from a very reliable source that I should stay clear of this organization, not good at all. IT IS NOT WHAT IT APPEARS......
 

all them miners meetin in Sac will most likely put an end to this, good luck and hopeto hear from someone attended
 

If you Google the USC code and click on the Authority link you will see where the problem lies.[h=3]This is a paperless agency operating under the Paperwork Reduction Act
(44 USC 3501 et seq.)[/h]
 

...............:) have a nice day...

A lot of you are jumping to conclusions on this deal, give it time to get straightened out, the idea is a good one but the way some of the wording goes and plan needs to be straightened out quite a bit, good intentions here I think just a little misunderstanding of HOW this sort of thing actually works best. After the meeting today more will be revealed.

"WRONG" RUN LIKE HELL THE OTHER WAY!!!!!
 

Seen a lot of good intentions through the years chupacabra.

I'm thinking we've got more than enough "experts" telling amateur placer gold miners what they need. Maybe those with "good intentions" figured all those experts needed another national organization to help them spend their donated money more wisely?

These folks don't know squat about mining districts, mining law or how to structure an organization. Having meetings where actual miners aren't welcome due to lack of space just shows how important miners are in this newest scheme.

I'm hearing privately that the decisions of miners about this new group have already been made - a big ell NO! I have no doubt we will be informed about how this meeting brought about great new prospects for us poor ignorant miners. Another organization will be shoved down our throats with "good intentions".

I see incompetent representation from this organization from the beginning. I have no doubt the land management agencies will latch on to this incompetence and gladly accept these newbies as the sole voice for mining. What could be better for the BLM and Forest Service than a patsy to blame all their offenses on? I can hear the agencies now "we gave you just what your representatives asked for - how can you complain?".

I say RUN! far away from this nonsense as fast as you can. Grab your wallet before you go, without your money these "miners" will just wander on to the next scheme.

Just one man's thoughts.

I'm with Jog, Clay, delnorter, Fowlerup and others.

I have learned that what happens out west will and does bite us in our 6 back east.

The Idaho Conservation League brought the EPA to Idaho. The ICL said they were just helping the miners adhere to the Clean Water Act...result? ICL killed dredging in Idaho.
Anyone see any similarities between MMAC and Idaho Conservation League?
I do and I still can't get the stink out of my nose.
 

my concern for MMAC if they succeed, MMAC will be under the thumb of Forest Service, BLM, State Water, MMAC will not be an equal to this nazie like bureaucracy, their by losing miners rights
 

"Follow the Yellow Brick Road, follow the Yellow Brick Road..... because because because because- because of the wonderful things he does!"

Anyone think just like the movie we'll ever figure out that we had or have what we've needed all along ourselves without the help of the Wizard?
 

Underburden, was lookin for a link to this ICL, nothing on there website and epa nothing as well, gotta link
