Golden Schneider #4 ±40 Acres BLM CAMC #293914 Price: $6,000 Schneider Creek drains a large plateau of Tertiary gravels that forms the divide between the North and Middle Forks of the Feather River. The Rich Bar Fault, the western boundary of the Feather River Serpentine Unit, cuts through Schneider Creek in its headwaters. Both the fault, the serpentine and the meta-sedimentary rocks adjacent to the fault are noted for rich pockets of gold. Our Golden Schneider #4 placer mining claim secures the lower reaches of the drainage just as it exits the mountains. Typically, this is the dumping ground for the gold. There are a number of pools and one fantastic waterfall with a wading pool at the base. There was some historic mining done in the valley in the 1800s, but little has been done since. Flood waters have ravaged the drainage and obviously moved more gold down valley. Since this is the lowest claim in the valley, that means gold is abound. The gold is bright and plentiful! It is both rounded (Tertiary gravel source) and chunky (nearby bedrock source).
Schneider Creek runs all year. These pictures were taken in October and show a pretty good flow. There are a number of gravel bars, pools and ledges that will provide many opportunities. Notice the the creek flows on bedrock in many of the photos. The snow usually melts off in early June. The best way to mine Schneider Creek is with a small-size dredge, say 2-1/2" to 3". High bankers will have a field day with all the opportunities adjacent to the creek. The pools are relatively shallow and air is not required to reach the bedrock.

Advanced miners who like to tackle the smaller creeks will equally enjoy this claim's abundant opportunities, especially with all the bedrock exposures! There is good access to the creek from Schneider Creek Road. There is a unmaintained foot trail that leads up the valley, which means few people have worked this area.
