ARIZONA ASSOCIATION OF GOLD PROSPECTORS

ARIZONA GOLD PROSPECTING ADVENTURES AND LESSONS

CONGRATULATIONS TO CHARLES FISCHER! Charles, who happens to be an expert fishing guide in Minnesota, recently participated on one of our Arizona Nugget Hunting trips through our Prospecting Adventures and Lessons where he found a big beautiful GOLD Nugget with a quartz matrix! Amazingly he was a total beginner but while putting into practice what he learned in his private lesson he found a Nugget anyone would be proud to have. Hopefully with his new prospecting knowledge he will find many more in his future prospecting endeavors. Wouldn't you like to know how to find Nuggets like this? Lately everyone has been finding nice GOLD on the lessons and most have found nice NUGGETS too! Have you ever wanted to go on a GOLD Mining Adventure or prospecting lesson? Have you ever wanted to learn how the professionals prospect for GOLD? Well now you can do either or both! In August 2020 GOLD hit an all time high of $2,078.44 per ounce! In August 2024 GOLD hit an all time high of $2,531.70 per ounce! With prices like this, can you afford not to learn how to find more? Beautiful Winter Morning High Noon On The Claims Full Moon Rising To The North January 16, 2015 Sunset To The South 2 Hours of Claim Testing June 6, 2015! Close up it looks even prettier! If you've been going out GOLD prospecting and coming home with little or no GOLD then you truly need to take some GOLD prospecting lessons. You should be able to go out every time and come home with at least $25 to $500 in GOLD or something is very wrong with your approach to this wonderful hobby. First and foremost you need access to good claims that can provide this GOLD to you every trip. Second you need to know where and how you should be looking for this amount of GOLD. Third you need good GOLD recovery equipment and you also need to know how to properly run that euipment to ensure success. We can help you get access to the good claims by joining the AAGP. We can also help you with learning how and where to look for this GOLD. And we can help train you on your equipment to ensure you aren't literally throwing back GOLD. So many times over the last 27 years I've seen prospectors literally throwing back and blowing off GOLD with their equipment as they are operating it improperly for the type of materials they are running. This includes prospectors who have been doing this long before I have. Sometimes we need a fresh eye and new set of knowledge and ideas to help put the spark and GOLD back into our prospecting trips. You can start this process by signing up for your first professional GOLD prospecting lesson below. What will happen if you don't take one? Well Einstein's definition of insanity is to continously do the same process over and over again and expect a different outcome. If you make no changes, you will receive no changes in what you take home at the end of the day. It just makes sense to hire us help you fine tune and correct your prospecting process and proceedures so you're consistently coming home with more GOLD!

For the last couple of years January through April had great weather and so far this year it's been the same so many have been taking their lessons now! Also during this time many small nuggets were found, some finding multiple. The last 2 prospecting lessons taught for Spring 2023, a couple of weeks ago, the first day of Nugget Hunting produced 2 nice nuggets. The second day was drywashing, which produced 3 nice nuggets and a bunch of flakes. Taking professional lessons can help you learn how to find and go home with more GOLD! In 2021, January through March was a wonderful, warm and sunny beginning to the new year making it great for being out on the claims. We look forward to having the same great weather this year. As always, many of our Winter members are having a great time here in the warmer sun. The GOLD they are finding gleams beautifully in the nice warm sun! Last April a new member from Alaska found 3 beautiful nuggets in 7 hours of work over 2 days that paid for his new GOLD Getter membership! So if you want to enjoy the sunny warm days prospecting beautiful GOLD, join the AAGP now and come on down here and get out where the GOLD flows like the warm sun! You too can be enjoying this wonderful sunny and nice weather with us while you find and take home the GOLD!
