to the GoldShooter gold mining club. GoldShooter was founded May
2006 as a not for profit club by volunteer experienced miners
dedicated to bringing you recreational gold mining at its very
best. Members will enjoy access to hundreds of acres of placer
gold producing claims. Club members may keep all the gold and
other valuable minerals that they find. Columbia Arizona is the
primary hub for GoldShooter. Columbia is located in the Bradshaw
mountains with some of the best gold mining history in the state
of Arizona. Our Columbia group mining grounds run through the
ghost town of Columbia to the Ghost town of Humbug, up Swilling
Gulch to the ghost town of Beacon Light, and include Rockwall
Gulch, Carpenter Gulch and the Gold Hill area. Columbia group
placer claims are surrounded by multiple ghost towns with over a
hundred major lode gold mines that deposited placer gold through
out the entire area. Some of the most unique historical
artifacts in the state remain in this area today. Area ghost
towns include Columbia, Humbug, Tip Top, Gillette, Packer,
Bradshaw City, Ft Tule, Cleator, Beacon light, CrownKing, Tiger
and others. GoldShooter members will enjoy mining, camping,
hiking, and have the opportunity to participate in historical
guided tours.
