What are the advantages and disadvantages of buying a mining claim ?

I have no gold prospecting experience , but would like to spend summers out with my Jeep and tent and do some fishing and a bit of prospecting . Are the mining claims a good route to go ?
I checked your link , but couldn’t find more than a few mining claims west of the Rockies . Also , most of them were more like giant campgrounds .

Which clubs have more rural mining claims available ?

WoW Professions help?

So i’m a mage on K’T and was gonna pick up jewelcrafting but I can’t decide which other prof to go with it. I’m torn between mining and prospecting the gems out or if I should buy the mats, make it with JC, and then disenchant it with Enchanting. I have around 1.3k gold, so i;m oretty sure money wont be a problem for buying the gems. Any help, plus other prof. combos are helpful. Thanks.

Help with Environmental Science homework?

Use the following scenario in answering the question. After reading a newspaper article about gold mining prospects near your home town, your sister commented that it seems as though miners are going after ores with less and less concentrations of the gold. She mentions the rich gold veins and nuggets that she reads about in historical accounts of gold mining and wonders what factors have lead to the change. She tells you that she knows that the days of gold nuggets in the streams are gone, but that she can’t believe how small the percentage of gold is in the ore they are now mining. First, you tell your sister that she sounds like your father, commenting on the good old days. Then you explain to her that there are many factors driving the changes and that there are important environmental implications of the mining.

Which of the following factors were not in your explanation?

A. Technological inventions can increase the efficiency of gold extraction from the ore.
B. New sources of the gold ore are found through better exploration techniques.
C. Technological inventions can increase efficiency of gold processing out of the ore.
D. As supplies decrease and prices rise it is less rewarding to explore for new sources of the gold.
E. All of these factors are based in economics and would be used in my explanation.
