There is a reason that they do not want you and I out there on public lands. They want to get rid of the rockhounds and the fossil collectors as well as anyone else who uses the public land that they seek to seize control away from the people. They have an agenda and it does not have a place for you to be traipsing around in their secret spots out in the middle of "Usedtobeplayland". They have some sort of nefarious plans to profit off of the lands that we own without cutting the public in on the deal.
Here is how it is going to go down.
1. Limit amounts of minerals that can be collected.
2. Limit methods of collection.
3. Remove roads to "protect" vulnerable areas.
4. Start to make certain "vulnerable" or "experimental human free zones" off limits.
5. Start teaching propaganda in schools to indoctrinate the children to their way of thinking.
6. Expand #4 exponentially.
7. After everyone has lost access and forgotten in a decade or two, lease small parcels to their friends.
8. Expand #6 to the N'th degree.
9. Change the National Anthem to "This land ain't your land. This land is my land. Get the hell off of my land. Go find your own land.".........

I hear ya! Two of my favorite collection locations are now under Claim and the holder of the Claim doesn't take well to other rockhounds. I can understand resource development needing to stake Claims, but this is simply a selfish rockhound that wants to keep the public off what were formerly public collecting areas since the late 1800's.
Here's an other verse ...
This land is my land, And it ain't your land, So get off it, Or I'll blow your head off.
I got a shotgun (or a Claim), And you ain't got one, This land is made, For only me.
Darryl.

Darryl. In the USA, a claim doesn't prevent surface collecting. Only digging of any sort. Or, so I am told.
