Claim Validity Research for Virgin Valley Nevada Opal Mining Claims
We can research the validity and priority of rights of any opal mining claim that is offered for sale in Virgin Valley, Humboldt County, Nevada. If you are buying an opal claim in the valley, this is especially important to know if you are buying a valid claim, if it is an overstake, if it has been claimjumped, is invalid, or has any defects or errors that could affect validity of the claim. This service starts at $125 for examining the claim papers for ONE claim, (Humboldt County Records, and BLM records).
If you are interested in buying an opal mining claim in Virgin Valley, Nevada, CONTACT US.
We are the most trusted source since 1994 for opal mining claims for sale in the valley and mining claim research and valley history. Beware of one local who tries selling claims which have not been located and mapped correctly or have been claimjumped and who steals ("highgrades") from existing mines when the owners are not in the valley. Our in-depth research has shown errors in other Virgin Valley Mines which some mine owners don't want people to look into. Yes, there have been conflicts in Virgin Valley, (particularly with Rainbow Ridge and Swordfish Mining/John Church) but we have NEVER had a single complaint over an opal mine that we have sold. If you are buying a mining claim from John Church/Swordfish Mining, or anyone else in the valley, we would be happy to perform a mining claim validity study for you.
*** THIS SERVICE PRICED AT $125 IS FOR EXAMINATION OF RECORDED TITLES AND CLAIMS ONLY. If you require an on-site examination the price will go up considerably to verify discovery, proper location, claim monuments and claim posts, metes and bounds, conflicting claims on the ground, etc etc. We can create a custom listing for you if you require further examination beyond the paper titles review****
