About Me
- Tom
- I have been fascinated by finding mineral deposits ever since my father took me on prospecting trips into the Cascade Mountains looking for uranium and gold many years ago. My purpose in operating this site is to provide both interesting and useful information, news, and resources for the small-scale miner and prospector.
