*20 Acre* Placer Gold Claim

Historic Trabuco Creek

Santiago Mountain

Orange County

This is an awesome 20 Acre Placer Gold Claim in the historic and gold-rich area of Orange County on Trabuco Creek.

This Claim encompasses a total of 20 Acres that is 95% workable, has easy access, year ’round water, shallow bedrock, many benches that can be worked and that are totally untouched! It is located within the Cleveland National Forest and is within 20-30 minutes of services, restaurants, hotels and freeways. This is a paradise for the weekend prospector that is looking for a Gold Claim that has definite deposits and can be worked year ’round. This is one of best locations in the Trabuco Creek area because it gets flow and deposits from several tributaries into Trabuco Creek and other Canyons! There is no other claim in the area that has this.

This productive placer gold claim is easy to get to and the road can be travelled in a passenger car and there are numerous places to park within the length of the claim. The entire length of the claim, 1320′, is on this creek and there is approximately 660′ of width to do various types of prospecting including metal detecting, high-banking, crevassing and sluicing/panning. Much of this claim has not been touched in decades so the potential of hitting a good pay streak is excellent! This is the last claim of this size on this creek that is within the Cleveland National Forest! It is clear of any roads or Right Of Ways and is not on Private Property.

This is a FULL 20 Acre Placer Claim!!

REMEMBER, this is Orange County, not the High Desert! This is beautiful forest land, with running water, no extreme heat to deal with and the ability to prospect ALL YEAR! The deposits in this area could be as good as some of the claims in the Mother Lode region. There are several old Lode Mines that have fed this creek for decades, so the deposits are numerous. The claim is strewn with large boulders and lots of quartz with ore deposits. There are no long desert roads to drive to get to this claim and when you are done, you can drive for 20 minutes and go to a nice restaurant!

This is a Placer claim, so there are no dangerous shafts to enter or a lot of material that you need to process…….and there are very nice amounts of gold and silver in the creek! The deposits that we have found and tested (yes, we test our claims!), have had very nice large flake and flour as well as nice pickers.(We have never dug more than 2′!!).

This area has a very good Gold and Sliver history for more than 100 years and has seen very little prospecting. Some of the benches are more like islands, created when the creek was much higher and consequently moved tons of material, large boulders and uprooted trees. We have always found Gold here and never thoroughly prospected the area, and only done test prospecting.
