[QUOTE="snafu, post: 613401, member: 1252"] The 'rule of thumb' here on the gemfields is quite simple - keep off someone else's patch and that applies to machinery leases, mining claims and fossicking diggings. Just because you don't see somebody working the dirt doesn't mean it's not being worked. If you know that you have entered a machinery lease, walk away from it. If you are in a hand mining area and there is gear laying about regardless of whether you can see claim posts, walk away from it. If you are in a fossicking area and there is a stick in a fresh looking hole with a plastic bottle hanging off it, walk away from it. Somebody was helping themselves to other people's active diggings at Divide many years ago and also stealing a bit of gear. I hung a sign on a tree where a few of us were digging and whoever it was that was 'ratting' the holes avoided my area.
