The owners have operated the ranch as a 300-400 mother cow and calf operation for over 25 years.

On the East side of the ranch, there are eight 200 acre grazing cells that the owners have used as intensive grazing cells that they cycle livestock through. The water tanks in the different pastures are both thermal sinks that provide the appropriate amount of water for livestock in both summer and winter months combined with traditional plastic tanks protected with drill stem pipe. There are several hundred acres of historical dryland hayfields that are currently being grazed but could be put back into production if desired. The headquarters of the ranch consist of two modular homes that have been fixed up and are very comfortable. There is a hunting camp set between the houses that the owners have leased out over the years. The shop is in great shape with half of the floor being dirt and the other half having concrete.

Between hay fields on the ranch and the hay barley/oats planted in the tilled acres, a good year with plenty of rain can guarantee all the feed a cattle herd would need. Up to 800 ton of hay has been produced on the ranch when properly fertilized and sprayed. The Windancer is a self-sustaining operation with a profitable bottom line. Water Resources The Windancer is one of the best watered ranches in this area. This feature makes this ranch one of the most versatile ranches in the Bull Mountains.

The TV show, American Gold: The Legend of Bear Gulch, on the Fox Business Channel, takes place in these same mountains.

We feel we are selling more than the gold and minerals on beautiful land. You would be acquiring an experience that will give you a good feel for what the old time prospectors must have felt during the days of the original Montana Gold Rush. A mining claim is an affordable way to enjoy the beauty of the land combined with the adventure of panning for gold. National Forests remained open at all times during the virus with a televised invitation by the Director for families to visit them as safe places for family recreation, making our mining claims some of the safest places for your family to enjoy and get away from all the nonsense. It is a good sign that there are other claims in this area being worked by experienced prospectors for years. The historic Missouri Mine once pulling in gold in the Montana Gold Rush is close by. A lode claim differs from our placer claims, as on a lode claim you can dig into the mountain side and can even go to the extent of building a mine shaft. Having a lode claim is an advantage as you can dig into the claim with a mine shaft if you choose that is not allowed on placer claims. A quartz/gold vein was discovered on the claim extending thru the claim. Our lode claim has veins of valuable minerals including gold in veins (called lodes) cutting thru rocks. Quartz and gold are frequently found together and digging into the quartz vein is called chasing the vein. A vein of quartz/gold runs South to North thru the middle of the claim. On the claim I found a quartz vein with gold traces in the rock. Pick and shovel, rock hammer, metal detector, and is hard rock mining. I did not expose the whole vein, though was able to follow it going through the claim, intermittently. The process of lode, hard rock mining, is the process where gold is extracted directly from the lode vein beneath the ground. Dig down 2-3 feet as go through the claim, then pick, shovel, and rock hammer and chisel working the sides of that hole. Filling in the holes when leave the claim as required by the national forest. For the use of any machinery, you need to file a Plan of Operation with the BLM for approval. Scratch your rock ore against an unglazed white ceramic streak plate. If it's gold, it will leave a golden streak. Or scratch the surface of the specimen with a knife. Gold is a soft metal that will show scratch marks. MADISON COUNTY: Down in Southwest Montana, sharing a tiny portion of its southern border with Idaho is Madison County. This mountainous part of Montana is wedged between Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks, and its residents maintain their local traditions that are inspired by the natural landscape, like fishing, ranching, and all things outdoors. The county seat is Virginia City, an interesting place split between the historic and the contemporary. Half of the town contains a vibrant, current-day population, while the other half is an abandoned mining town, preserved as a slice of history and a window into the lives of settlers from the mid-1800s. While Virginia City is probably the countys largest touristic draw, the nearby town of Ennis is a delightful stop for passers-through, and is host to many annual events. Though it doesnt immediately border Yellowstone National Park, Madison County, and more specifically Ennis, can make a great base from which to explore the park. South Meadow Creek begins in the southern portion of the Tobacco Root Mountains. Located in the upper portion of this drainage is South Meadow Lake. The creek originates in thick timber stands, and makes its way down into the valley. Once in the valley, it flows through lush hay meadows and pastureland before reaching its confluence with North Meadow Creek, just west of Ennis Lake. SOUTHWEST MONTANA ROCKHOUNDING Rockhounding is more than just a hobby; it is a lifestyle. There's a reason Montana is known as the Treasure State and that Southwest Montana where our claims are located is especially rich for gold and precious gems. Even today, you can tap into the euphoria of making a find in Montana. A century and a half ago, these hills crawled with prospectors lured by rich gold strikes. Aquamarine, sapphires, garnets, amethyst, smoky quartz, clear quartz scepters, jaspers, topaz, and even diamnonds are also to be found in this part of Montana. Because of such an availability of gems to be found, there are many Mineral and Gem Clubs throughout the state. The geology of Montana had a history of volcanic activity which is largely responsible for the wide variety of interesting rocks and minerals to be found here. MADISON COUNTY Madison County has some of the worlds best fly-fishing and endless other outdoor activities. Close enough to Yellowstone National Park to visit, but far enough to be away from the crowds, this county has something for everybody during all seasons throughout the year. Amazing mountain views, spectacular trout fishing, and Cowboy Culture are just a few reasons to visit Madison Valley. During the summer months, there are endless options for outdoor activities like fishing, hiking, biking, and kayaking. The Big Sky Ski resort is an hour and half SE with all the winter activities. Nearby Willow Creek Reservoir is a fishing access site that also has camping. Fishing and boating may be enjoyed on the lake with a boat launch provided. MADISON VALLEY The Madison Valley where our claims are located, is an area rooted in farming and ranching with blue ribbon rivers, majestic mountain ranges, abundant wildlife, and small towns with rural values. Lewis and Clark crossed this scenic valley of majestic mountain ranges and the fabled Madison River in 1805, but not until 1864, shortly after gold was first discovered in the valley, did Madison County become part of Montana Territory. Today, rural and community values keep ranching as the main way of life in the Madison Valley. Through conservation, the Madison Valley has sustained productive agricultural land, healthy grasslands, and abundant wildlife. In addition to its old west charm, the Madison Valley has arguably the most superb fly-fishing waters in all the world and the Madison River may be our most glorious. Meriwether Lewis named the river in 1805 after James Madison, who was the US Secretary of State at the time. Starting in Yellowstone National Park, the river is 183 miles of perfectly moving riffles that are teaming with trout. Ennis is the base camp of the Madison Valley, a colorful town filled with fly anglers and ranchers, Ennis sits on the banks of the Madison River and is surrounded by 3 mountain ranges.

Visit the historic chalets and lodges for a walk back in time or backpack, cycle, hike, or camp. While taking in the astounding sights of the glacier carved peaks and valleys, set your binoculars on a diverse range of wildlife of big horn sheep, mountain goats, deer, elk, ptarmigan, and both black and grizzly bear. This highway to heaven is a tough one to ever forget. Freezeout Lake Wildlife Management Area The Freezeout Lake Wildlife Management Area is located between Fairfield and Choteau and is known for the massive snow geese and tundra swan migrations that take place in the spring and fall. Flying all the way from the gulf states, as many as 300,000 snow geese and 10,000 tundra swans gather at the lake to rest before continuing on to the arctic coast of Canada.

COWAN BAR PLACER GOLD Location: Bannack Mining District, Dillon, Montana The Cowan Bar Placer Gold Property presents an exceptional investment opportunity in one of Montana's most historically significant gold-producing areas. This advanced exploration and potential production property is located in the renowned Bannack Mining District, just downstream from Bannack, Montana's first gold mining boomtown from the 1860s. Spanning 89.25 acres across six private parcels, the claim covers over 1 mile of Grasshopper Creek, a historically rich placer gold-producing creek. The Cowan Bar Placer is known for its untapped potential, offering investors a chance to capitalize on a district with a long history of gold production, including 500,000 ounces of gold from the Bannack district. Grasshopper Creek was the first major gold discovery site in Montana and has produced considerable amounts of placer gold in its history. The Cowan Bar property lies in the heart of this rich district, offering modern operators the potential to recover gold using contemporary, efficient methods. Key Property Features: Resource Estimates: According to a 1987 geological report, the property is estimated to hold 63,900 ounces of placer gold, derived from 3.55 million cubic yards of gold-bearing gravel. Additional cemented gravels not included in the resource calculation may provide further gold deposits. Test results from these gravels indicate gold content of 0.461 ounces per ton. Overburden & Pay Gravels: The overburden depth ranges from 2-6 feet, with more than 40 distinct pay gravel layers identified. These layers offer rich gold deposits and include a variety of materials, such as sand, sediment, river rock, and cemented gravels. The cemented gravels at depth represent a significant opportunity for additional gold recovery, especially with modern mining methods. Water Rights: The property comes with comprehensive water rights for the full output of Grasshopper Creek, providing sufficient water to support operations ranging from 1,000 yards per day to larger 10,000-yard per day mining projects. These rights are a valuable asset that ensures consistent water supply for high-volume mining operations. Scalable Operations: The Cowan Bar Placer is suitable for a range of mining operations. A small-scale project (1,000 yards per day) could be managed with a small team of 3-4 workers, utilizing basic placer equipment and optimized recovery systems. For larger operations, the property could support up to 10,000 yards per day, putting it on par with some of the largest placer mining operations in Alaska or the Yukon. Revenue Potential: A 1,000-yard per day operation could generate $50,000 to $150,000 per day in revenue, depending on gold recovery rates, market conditions, and equipment efficiency. A 10,000-yard per day operation would significantly increase these numbers, offering even more revenue potential. Mining Techniques and Technologies: The historical methods of gold recovery on the property were not efficient, particularly when dealing with flour gold and fine gold particles. However, with the introduction of modern recovery technologies like centrifugal concentrators, the extraction of these smaller particles would no longer be a challenge. Additionally, the use of commercial dredging could lower operating costs significantly, though this method would require higher initial capital investment. Historical Significance and Geology: Bannack Mining District: The Bannack district is the birthplace of gold mining in Montana. Gold was first discovered here in 1862 along Grasshopper Creek, making it the first major gold discovery in the state. In its first year of production, $600,000 worth of gold (approximately 30,000 ounces) was extracted from the creek. By 1863, the town of Bannack had a population of over 3,000 people and became the first capital of Montana Territory. The area was known for its rich placer deposits (which accounted for 75% of the districts gold production) and its lode mines (which contributed the remaining 25%). Geology of the Bannack District: The geology in the area is dominated by the Beaverhead Formation, which consists of conglomerates, sandstones, and limestones formed during the Laramide orogeny. These deposits, formed during the Late Cretaceous to early Eocene, are key to understanding the rich gold-bearing layers at Cowan Bar. Gold veins in the area formed along fractures and faults in the granodiorite intrusives and limestones. These veins are known to produce free-milling gold, making them highly desirable for placer mining operations. Cowan Bars Geological Layers: The Cowan Bar Placer property itself is characterized by multiple layers of placer deposits, including cemented gravels at depth, which are not yet fully explored. The current resource estimate does not take these deeper layers into account, which could significantly increase the amount of recoverable gold. The gold deposits at Cowan Bar have been deposited through multiple periods of sedimentation, resulting in over 40 layers of pay gravel that could be mined individually or in sequence to maximize gold recovery. Development Opportunities and Upside Potential: Small-Scale Development: A small, 1,000-yard per day operation could be initiated with a relatively low initial investment. A team of 3-4 people could run the operation with standard placer equipment and a centrifugal concentrator to optimize recovery of fine gold. Large-Scale Commercial Mining: A larger operation (up to 10,000 yards per day) would require more advanced equipment, infrastructure, and potentially commercial dredging techniques. This scale of mining could substantially increase daily revenue, making it a highly profitable venture. Additional Exploration Potential: While the property already has extensive geological data, the deeper cemented gravels have not been fully explored. Modern drilling and testing could potentially expand the gold resource by up to 5-10 times the current estimate. There is also the possibility of converting the property into a hardrock open-pit mine at depth, which would open up additional resource potential. Next Steps: Contact us today to schedule a site visit and discuss how you can secure this exceptional investment opportunity. We offer detailed geological reports, drill records, assays, and additional materials for serious investors interested in acquiring the Cowan Bar Placer Gold Property. This property is offered for sale due to the dissolution of a partnership. Lease or joint venture options are not available.
