Wickenburg AZ Gold Mining Claim with tunnels, mineshaft and tailings
Sold$15,000
Description
a proven gold area just outside of Wickenburg. This is a pretty interesting and extensive claim – there are two mines here, but both have been partially blocked due to natural erosion. The main mine, which is supposed to have more than 800 feet of tunnels on two levels, reportedly is fully tracked and has likely not seen a human in decades. The ore chute and head frame are all that is visible, but it wouldn’t take much to reopen this one as you can see from the below pictures of the loose gravel around the entrance.Directly across a gulch the tailings from the second mine, which is reported to be a shaft running 85 feet down before branching off to the north and to the south. Tone of tailings on both sides of the gulch as well as in the dry riverbed below it – plenty of material to rework before you even open the mines! https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1316866323458950/?mibextid=P5sS7T
