LDM and other things
Joe, I am very interested in finding out some information on a George W. Hayes. Hayes reputedly acquired a fortune before he turned 21 from mining in Arizona and Mexico. He later relocated to Goldfield, Nevada, and was a business associate of Martin`s son, and a major player in the gold strike in Go...

LDM and other things
Joe, First let`s start with the LDM and the Stone Maps. I agree with you that LDM 1 is shown on the Stone Maps. And yes you can`t reveal the location of LDM 1 without revealing the other. What I have come to believe though is LDM 1 is only incidental to the Maps. The Maps reveal the location of the ...

The LDM and other things
Joe, Haven`t a clue why Bark said what he did. Find it a bit surprising. The gold must have been specimen pieces for them to have gotten $60.00 an ounce. If my memory serves me I believe Gold was between 14-18 dollars an ounce at that time. Believe it didn`t get to 35 dollars an ounce until the 1930...

Backdoors and such
Joe, Thank you for the information regarding Mr.Howard. If was most helpful. Actually the sensitivity regarding Black Top Mesa is driven by the fact I tend to talk too much. It is not driven by my concerns regarding calling attention to the location. After all if all of those folks looked for years ...

Backdoors and such
Joe, For the moment Black top Mesa is too sensitive to discuss. Would be interested in hearing Mr. Howard`s story if you can share. One cannot find what one was given. Guess I could ask you to re-phrase the question but I know what you are interested in. Suspect you know where the information came f...

Back doors/Georgia on my mind
Hi Gene, Dahlonega is a neat town. There is a famous mine close by called the Calhoun Mine. It was quite a producer. The veins there are in metamorphic rock. Good example, I believe, in the support of the lateral secretion theory of ore deposition. Anyway the Calhoun mine was a real money machine fo...

Joe, It just simply is not right. If folks down there can`t see that it says a lot more about them than it does you. A great man once said our destiny is our intergrity.

Lost Dutchman location
Gene, Thanks for the information. I will send a check out today. See you are in Georgia now. I grew up there and spent a lot of time in the hills of North Georgia looking for Gold. A lot of folks don`t know there was a major Gold strike there and that a U.S. Mint was established in Dahlonega. Beauti...

Lost Dutchman
Mr. Reynolds, I hope you get your files back. I would like to get a copy of your book if that is possible. The Lost Dutchman, where could it be. I would suggest one look closely in Pistol Canyon and Squaw Canyon. The issue is not what seperates the two canyons, but what connects them. They are conne...

multiple deposits
Sluicebox, From where I sit the possibility that a single mine could produce different types of ore is always a distinct possiblity if there are multiple events producing the deposit and there are adequate fractures, faults or shear zones to accomodate the mineralizing solutions. In addition the dee...

Joe, Martin`s involvement with the Peralta`s ended shortly after the massacre. His involvement with others was just beginning. Bill, Not sure if your post is aimed at my comments but I suspect they are. Yes I believe as you that there are multiple outcroppings of ore in the Superstitutions that have...

Peralta`s
Mr. Reynolds, Thank you for your prompt reply to my inquiry. Martin was involved with the Peralta`s starting in the 1840`s. Wasn`t sure if I could find any other reference to him but one can only hope. Joe, Really I don`t know enough about the current history of the LDM to comment on the validity of...

Mr. Reynolds, I have read a number of your posts and have enjoyed your insights into the history of the LDM. Hope you will re-consider your action. Sometimes things get a little nuts here but it seems folks have signed a peace treaty and hopefully things will get a lot better. I do have a question f...

What Did he know and when Did he know it?
Joe, Have to head to the airport but let me leave you with a final thought. Perhaps Ely was given the location to the LDM and something else. The gift was always a two-edged sword, you can`t reveal one without revealing the other. The other exists behind a waterfall. The other is worth a lifetime of...

Joe, Not knowing the folks on this website I still have to believe there are a lot of good folks out there who simply want to discuss the history of the Superstituions, the Stone Maps, the Apache`s, etc. I really don`t know how to help re-direct the dialogue to allow this to happen. Maybe at the end...

Petzite/Waterfalls
Joe, Good question about the petzite. Not aware of any gold tellurides where I am working. Doesn`t mean they aren`t a part of it. Would be a bit surprised if they were though. Cripple Creek, Colorado was probably the biggest Gold Telluride Deposit ever found. Actually some similarities now that I th...

TGH, Enjoyed reading your post. Since we both agree that the vein system of which the LDM is a part can be described as a honeycomb, perhaps the best way to access the LDM is a rear door sorta speak. Furthermore perhaps the various descriptions of the LDM are really just different manifestations of ...
