Pirates Charity

Radersburg, Montana

Of the 54 mining districts in Montana, 98% of them are located in the western portion of the state. Broadwater County is host to a number of prominent mining districts. Near the small town of Radersburg, the Ohio – Keating Mine, and its associated satellite ore deposits, was one of the largest gold producers of the county. Gold was discovered in the washes that formed the broad alluvial fan downslope from the ore body. The hardrock mine operated from 1901 – 1948 and it is estimated to have produced 174,000 metric tons from more than 10,000 feet of underground workings.

The alluvial deposits downslope from the Ohio – Keating Mine were quite rich and while most of the past working were in Keating Gulch, the alluvial fans and their small drainages have also produced quite well, including Charity and Johnney’s Gulch.

Our Pirates Charity placer claim secures a 1,300-foot-long reach of Charity Gulch just down wash from the main Ohio – Keating Mine prospects. It is a prominent +25-foot-deep incision into the alluvial fan which has remnant gravel benches on either side. Tailings piles are common, but a keen eye will notice the old prospectors left a lot of virgin ground – not to mention, the alluvial fans are likely over 150 feet thick.

Charity Gulch flows during the spring runoff but after that, the surface water percolates into the porous gravels leaving the wash dry. Any material processing after that will require the claimant to bring in their own water. The ideal mining method would be with wash plant-system and recirculating ponds.

The grade of the gravels is unknown and as with all alluvial fan deposits, the high grades likely occur in streaks. The cobble size in the deposit suggests everything from dust to nuggets. Weekend warrior prospectors have combed Charity Gulch, and reports tell of nuggets the size of almonds. But if the surface is any indication of the grade, the subsurface could be even richer.

A series smaller gullies is located on the Pirates Charity claim south of Charity Gulch and will likely provide additional opportunities as well.

With the Elkhorn Mountains looming to the west and the prominent Missouri River Valley to the east, camping between the juniper trees on this claim would provide many days of happy prospecting and relaxing nighttime campfire moments.
