gary95340: Hello, I read the Jasper Point post, 2009. I am part owner of the KAREN LYNN claim. It’s located in Hunters Valley. It’s a Jasper load claim. To my knowledge it is illegal to collect rocks in the Lake McClure area, owned by MID. Jasper Point is in MID Dec 7, 2024 23:57:23 GMT -5

gary95340: New to this, I haven’t a clue on posting. I have about 1 ton of jasper, various sizes. Dec 8, 2024 0:02:13 GMT -5

gary95340: No use to hang around, I’m out of here. Dec 8, 2024 0:03:29 GMT -5

gary95340: Jasper point is a geographic location easily located on a topographical map. It obtained its name, because Jasper was mined there at the time of the railroad. I visited the site by boat during the end of the last drought. Dec 8, 2024 0:08:15 GMT -5

amygdule: I like Jasper

Maybe you can post some pictures here

gary95340: How do I upload a photo? On this site Dec 9, 2024 23:56:06 GMT -5

Rockoonz: gary95340 post on the forum in the introductions, if you ask the question there we can help you get started posting with either the cloudinary for PC or the tapatalk app for apple/android. Not sure if it's even possible to post pics in the shout-box. Dec 10, 2024 11:17:30 GMT -5

1dave: If the earth is flat, what is on the bottom side? Dec 10, 2024 11:24:45 GMT -5

1dave: Rockoonz, the image needs to be small, around 200dpi. Place img] before, and [/img] after. Dec 10, 2024 11:31:02 GMT -5 *

gary95340: Easy answer, go to FLICKR.COM. In the search bar enter “Jasper claim” that’s my name on that site. All photos were uploaded by me, years ago. Should be 64 photos, Helen Trumbull shows 4 photos. If you search Hornitos jasper you’ll see some jewelry I made, Dec 10, 2024 23:30:23 GMT -5
