panning for GOLD in BANCROFT ONT CANADA ,ya they set up a booth at the annual GEMBOREE, if in fact you are not kidding about Panning for GOLD >> swirl learned a few tricks last year at ROCKHOUND Gemboree in BANCROFT and panned out a little piece ,i had to prove to myself it was possible, next i will pan BIRDS CREEK north of Bancroft, the creek runs through my pal DAN 's property , this summer i will check for real GOLD . Swirl has a prospectors licence which allows him to prospect ANYWHERE IN ONTARIO ? this means if i suspect a viable MINERAL COMMODITY on your land , not claimed ,any Prospector can come in for an Exploration >> and CLAIM. some land owners dont like the average Prospector, once they realize the POWER of a $25 prospectors licence. GO FOR THE GOLD ! try a 00 screen lol SWIRL

Hey Eizla. Susie, one of the friends listed at your site, is ill. A get well letter would do her heart good and cheer her up a bit. We live in a world that does not apriciate art. We must care for eachother. So leave a post on her board if you have time. Put a smile on her face when she gets home from the hospital. L John TOX
