Greetings all,
Many thanks for this tremendous resource!
I have been swimming in it and still can't see the opposite shore. Figured I should dog paddle for a while and introduce myself.
Technical background in plastics and metal forging, casting and fabrication.
Experience within placer gold mining and its recovery methods.
From a family of hardrock copper miners (Copper Queen Mine - Bisbee, AZ) and mining engineers.
Recently retired from my own business (not related to mining) and was told by the wife to get a hobby or else she would create a "honey do" list that would make a Russian novelist proud.
Got involved with rock hounding many years ago and I am looking to get back into the game.
Also involved in ewaste recovery and PM refining. The electronics and the chemistry of PM recovery are fascinating.
Best regards to all!
Peace, James
