Hunt For Gold On Public Lands Tests Biden’s Interior Department
File a claim and its yours by law. Don't hesitate. BLM land belongs to the people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Mining_Act_of_1872
Mojave Precious Metals is not a U.S. company and mining does not bring "lots and lots" of jobs. The minerals will be extracted, the profits pocketed, and a toxic waste site left behind. I've seen it over and over in West Virginia.
The problem is every place in America could be considered sacred land. Its a money grab for compensation.
Socialism is democracy in the work place
" look we're not going to destroy the land we're only going to sell it to a company that will"… stupid but honest
Poor Inyo County…….first LA bought/stole their water rights and now the filthiest mining technique possible is imminent.
Public land go to private. 1 billion a square foot.
I see zero beauty in that terrain it's barren and ugly
Nice video!! Very engaging from beginning to end. Nevertheless, businesses and investment are easiest way to make money irrespective of which party makes it to the oval office.
The USA doesn't need another fracking type operation in this country. We must be smarter and innovate beyond our current ideas of how to produce technology. The technology we use now and toss in the dump should also be getting recycled and repurposed.
People's, the earth is full of diamonds and gold everywhere!! You don't go destroying beautiful places on earth for them dumbasses!!!!!
Todavia GOLD? How SAD!
"We have stories about how each of these mountains and streams were made"
That is all they are, stories.
If we are to transition to green energy we need gold, silver and copper.
