Project Description

Wyrick Construction proposed to operate an approximately 190 acre (25 acres private, 65 acres BLM) placer gold mining operation along the Hassayampa River. The proposed project would extract sedimentary material from the Hassayampa River and Fools Canyon alluvial systems for recovery of gold-bearing gravels from alluvial placer deposits. There is one, approximately 5-acre, temporary ore processing wash plant installation and other support features on the private parcel (see Figure 2). The majority of mining is proposed within 165 acres of BLM-administered lands. Extraction would occur in five phases over multiple years, with active, un-reclaimed disturbance totaling no more than approximately 20 acres at a given time.
