Seeing Is Believing
Let us make it easy for you. Lohman Mining
will provide your party with a rustic camp on the claims, various
small scale sampling and processing equipment, an ATV with cargo
trailer to transport people and supplies around the claims and a
"host" that can help in logistical support of any sampling and
testing efforts. The fee for prospective buyers for the
logistics support and camp and equipment use is $1000.00 per
person per week. (50% of any fees paid by a prospective buyer
would be credited toward the down payment.) We will host
up to 3 groups for a total of 6 guests at any one time. You can
book the camp for a 6 person exclusive prospecting and testing
program if you like for
$5000 per week. We will have the camp and host available for 4 weeks
starting in July. We can potentially add an additional 2 weeks
if you require. Lohman Mining
and Commercial Inc. will have the needed permits allowing for
testing and sampling utilizing suction dredges up to 6",
highbankers, sluices, and drilling. Prospective
buyers are allowed to bring their own testing equipment with
prior approval. (Even though the
claims are Lohman Mining and Commercial Inc. private property,
all testing, sampling and mining operations still have to
conform to various state and federal regulations for water
usage.)
 CAMP DESCRIPTION:
2 guests per 7 man tent with 6'8" headroom and attached screened
"porch" These large roomy tents can fit 3-4 people if desired
but having 2 per tent gives everyone a lot of room.
Beds will be large 36" wide by 7 foot cots with thick foam
pads (guests to furnish own sleeping bags or bedrolls)
Large Screened Cook Tent with 3 burner propane cook stove, all
cookware including pots, pans, coffee pot, plates, bowls,
utensils. Guests will be doing their own cooking and dishes. The
Camp Host will be filtering all drinking water and will maintain
and service the various camp equipment. We will furnish general
spices, paper towels, dish soap, drying towels, cutting boards,
kitchen knives, can openers, matches, sugar, honey, salt, flour,
pepper, Tabasco, mustard, ketchup, coffee, thermoses, and tea
for guests. The normal procedure is that the Camp Host will
pickup the arriving guests and take them to a local grocery
store where guests can purchase any desired food items. We
recommend keeping your meals simple and have a recommended list
of easy to fix and nutritious meals. If you would like a copy
please contact us and we will send it to you. If guests prefer,
they can furnish a list of their desired food items prior to
June 15, along with appropriate funds and the Camp Host will
purchase the desired items and have it available upon their
arrival at Coffee Creek Mine.
Various tables and chairs with seating for all guests and host
will be at the camp.
2000 Watt Honda generator (will run approximately 10-12 hours per
day), small refrigerator/freezer, potable water filtration
system and Skeeter Vac mosquito remediation unit for camp
Lohman Mining and Commercial Inc. will furnish all propane for
the cook stove and skeeter vac and gasoline for the generator
and ATV. Guests will be responsible for the fuel costs for the
fuel used by the testing equipment that they use. Labeled fuel
containers will be assigned to guests and the cost of fuel used
by guests in their testing will be settled prior to departure.
Regular gasoline is currently about $5.30 per gallon in Nome. We
anticipate that the price per gallon of gasoline will be about
the same this coming summer. Highbanker and suction dredge fuel
usage is generally 3-4 gallons per day depending on hours
worked.
Screened shower tent with solar heated shower water. Shower
water can also be heated on the stove as desired on rainy days.
Guests will need their own towels.
Single seat outhouse style latrine and LMCC Inc. will furnish
toilet paper and hand sanitizer.
Lohman Mining and Commercial Inc. will have an ATV with cargo
trailer on site for the Camp Host to help in transporting guests
and equipment around the claims as needed.
Lohman Mining and Commercial Inc. will pickup guests in Nome
upon their arrival and transport them to the claims and back to
Nome for their departure.
It is anticipated that the Camp Host will be driving once a week
to Nome for supplies and picking up arriving and taking back
departing guests. If guests require or desire a special run to
Nome it can be arranged with the camp host for $200.00. A round
trip to Nome is 150 miles and takes approximately 2 hours each
way so plan your needs carefully. A limited number of rental
cars are available in Nome and we understand the cost is
approximately $100 per day for those that may want their own
vehicle.
