Little Bear

Little Bear ±20 Acres Price: $5,500 The Tertiary gravels of the Northern Sierra are legendary for their rich pockets of gold and prospectors have sought after them ever since they were first discovered in the mid 1800s. Little Grizzly Creek drains a large area of the Tertiary deposits in its upper drainage and has given several placer miners the opportunity to say "Eureka, I found it"! Equally exciting is that Little Grizzly Creek drains the famous Walker Consolidated Mine area, a rich copper-gold deposit at the southern end of the Plumas Copper Belt. The mineralization was driven by the Little Grizzly Creek granodiorite. The ore occurred in Quartz Veins within a shear zone. Five high-grade ore bodies were mined along the shear zone for at least 7000 feet and to a depth of over 1000 feet. This one-two punch makes placer mining claims on Little Grizzly Creek one of the prime acquisitions in the northern Sierra. Prospecting skill levels for the Little Bear placer claim are from beginner to advanced, trending towards the intermediate level. Numerous smaller veins radiated away from the shear zone and provided abundant placer opportunities downstream. The Little Bear placer claim secures a series of bends and chutes that descends from about 5553 ft. elevation to 5386 ft. As the pictures show, the canyon is narrow and bedrocks is widespread. Numerous boulders litter the drainage and range in size from small to very large. There are a number of remnant terrace deposits along the drainage, but most are isolated and make for good campsites. Floodwaters have been brisk and the drainage appears to have scoured-out every so often, replenishing the gravels and the GOLD! Bedrock is predominantly metavolcanics of the Sierra Buttes Formation. It is full of clasts, some of which are easily eroded and form kettles that are ideal traps for gold. It is the remoteness that makes this claim very attractive. Although the access is not condusive for an RV, there is a beautiful creekside camping site on the claim that can also be used for basic staging areas. With all the cracks and boulders, prospectors with metal detectors should find abundant rewards not only along the stream but along the slopes and within the cliffs. Miners and prospectors will have a life-time of opportunities before this claim is played out.
