NB Prospecting Updates
Hey everyone, without getting into the technical talk about it all, weve had a few updates to the site and a few bigger ones to come over the holidays!
New Updates -
Join our Mailing List feature has been added at the bottom of the home page and also to the group outings page. We wont spam your mailbox - blog posts will always be featured on our social media sites and those only. The mailbox will be used to reach out to you for important event planning like outings or contests (Yes were planning on having one soon!) Also you may periodically receive notifications of publications that the department of energy and mines releases. Sometimes they put out some pretty interesting stuff.
Future updates -
Contest to be added in the new year, this contest will consist of a recruiting push with different tiers of prizes based on the engagment we receive. I can tell you now that the prizes will help you get through a long winter as we are planning on getting some placer gold concentrates from Eureka Gold Sands in British Columbia. More Details will come in a week or so.
Forums - We are going to be opening a members forum to create returning visitors and boost social interaction from these visitors. This will feature Classifieds to buy and sell gear, pumps and whatever else you want, Seperate discussions for each topic you are interested in an so on.
Under the Microscope - Getting up close and personal with imaging of minerals. We've acquired a digital photographing microscope which we will being posting information on individual minerals, showing what some of these look like under magnification!
Group Outing Planning - Essentially we have a location where we can pan for gold now so were trying to get some permits in place to run a highbanker or a sluice box in the spring. This permitting process takes up to 8 weeks so keep your fingers crossed for us. Once we hear about this we will get into some planning for the spring and get anyone who is interested, out in the field for a day!
