ABOUT US / HISTORY ( Site undergoing modifications,please be patient) The National Association of Mining Districts was originally started in 1981 by Robert A. Sanregret, a Mine Patenting Attorney from Tustin, California. I was a business partner with Mr. Sanregret for almost 20 years, until his untimely passing away. Mr. Sanregret saw the need to protect and promote the 1872 Mining Laws established at the same time Congress enacted Railroad Districts, School Districts and Water Districts in the United States. Mr. Sanregret was very active in helping both the small miner as well as large mining Corporations. He wrote “The Government Update” for The International Mining Journal for many years, keeping the mining community abreast of legislative activities in all levels of Government. I gave Mr. Sanregret my solemn promise before his passing, that I would carry on this effort. One of his business affiliates,Mr.Donald Fife,a renown Pro-Mining Geologist ,was also contibuting to Mr. Sanregrets efforts, but I have learned from many sources that Mr. Fife is rejecting any inquiries from many people to help in legal re-activation of Mining Districts, as he may be getting up there in years, and I understand this. So, I have taken up the cause full-time,established this web presence for NAMD, and will continue to disseminate to all those interested how to get underway in this most strategic and critical effort. As I learned from him the critical importance of the Federal Statues that gave Mining Districts the legal ability to organize and operate their individual Mining Districts, I decided in 1997 that I would begin the process of legally re-activation of dormant Mining Districts. The 1st Mining District I did this for was The Weaver Mining District in Yavapai County, Arizona. See http://www.weavermining.com . I helped form an initial Board of Directors, By-Laws establishing District functions, and successfully recorded the documents with the County seat in Prescott, Arizona. I then informed the Honorable Senator John McCain’s Office of my activities, and within 2 days received an Official letter addressed to me with the new assigned title of ,” George S. Riddle, Intergovernmental Representative for States Mining Districts”, which enthusiastically told me of the importance to organize and continue my efforts. When I showed Mr. Sanregret that letter, he grabbed it out of my hand so fast and proudly exclaimed,” This is an historic document”. Today, the Weaver Mining District is a tremendous success, benefitting Local, State and Federal Agencies related to Mining. The re-activation of Mining Districts began to spread into other States. Mining Districts were considered the “Lead Agency” in a County by the Federal Government until 1914, when Congress passed a legislative Bill generally referred to as “The Enabling Act of 1914, putting the County seats as the Lead Agency to receive Federal Funding to provide essential Community services, as our society entered the technological age, thus making Mining Districts go dormant, BUT, the Federal Statues in The Code of Federal Regulations in relation to Mining Districts remained intact and unchanged. This is something that the “Anti-Mining” Senators and Government regulators would love to annul or change, but through the activities of The National Association of Mining Districts and other people and Departments,, we have been able to stop them from doing this. Let's start a mining revival= a better American economy,more jobs created. THIS IS WHAT PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN & PRESIDENT ULYSSES S. GRANT PASSED THIS LAW FOR>> US !!!!! FUNCTIONS OF A MINING DISTRICT This is not exhaustive, just a guideline, as each Mining District will require its specific services. Here are some By-Laws found to be the core and essentials for building up your member services. 1. Establish a central meeting place for Official District meetings, or emergency meetings, which are announced by putting an add in the local paper, utilizing the internets social service websites, and phone or email contacting members 3 days before a vote of 3 or more members desire an emergency meet up. 1. Establish a new map boundary that is an amended map boundary of the District as it was when it was active back in the pre 1800’s. Do this on a Topographic map attached to the document you will file with the County Recorder. 1. Elect a ‘District Marshall’, who is a person who is a member, licensed to carry a firearm, who will keep the peace, physically in a District. This person will report all discovered illegal activities he finds either of a Civil nature, or unscrupulous claim jumpers creating over-claiming of boundaries, which can all be settled in District meetings instead of a possible shoot out in the field. This Claims Marshall will work in close conjunction with Local and State or BLM Law Enforcement. Kick out the people bringing a bad name to a Mining District. Expose scammers and lock up high graders. Professional claim jumping is in epidemic proportions, let us act. Clean out the ‘Aliens’ sneaking around protecting drug cartels. 1. Organize a reclamation specialist’s team. These men would clean all metals and Haz-Mat type materials from abandoned mining claims, using the scrap metals or abandoned equipment for the Districts benefit. They would also aid in itemization of dangerous, off limit areas that present a hazard to the general public. 1. Itemize and announce a Property Availability Service of mines for Sale, Lease, of Joint Venture with the District so that individuals and Mining Companies will know what’s available. 1. Itemize and list for public publishing a Miners Employment Availability Exchange.Who wants to work? 1. Provide a global mining service for all District members.> Consultation, Assaying, Contract Mining, MSHA Safety Certification, and other critical services. Providing Mining Claims Location forms and equipment, as well as pertinent services. 1. Start a Public Relations Department. The District will act as an ‘Ombudsman’ in assisting in relations between miners and the Public. This will also put the District into network with other Districts and the Mining Districts can give direct input into the regulatory process that the Local, State and Federal Agencies desperately need advice and direction with. THIS IS ACTUALLY THE FEDERAL SERVICE THAT MINING DISTRICTS ARE IN THE FEDERAL STAUTES FOR, TO ACT IN AN OFFICIAL ADVISORY CAPACITY. 1. Establish a responsible radio operator to work with the County Fire Marshall as Remote Fire Watch in remote Mining areas. 1. Support The National Association of Mining Districts 1. Sell mineral products produced by the District. 1. Establish a good Mining Attorney on The Board of Directors, to help with legal advice. 1. Possible establish an affordable Mining District Member fee, to help offset overhead for District functions that benefit the local community. 1. Establish a “Cultural and Geographical Advisory Council”. This will point out sensitive areas of Archaeological or Historical significance, that they can be researched and protected according to Federal Law. These are only a few beneficial guidelines to help your re-activated District operate. Many people have complained to me that “What good does all this re-activation do when we are regulated to death” Here is my answer> I called the Top Legal Department for the BLM and told them what I was doing and what I had done; they wanted specifics, which I answered and clarified. The answer I received was,” In their strictly legal interpretation of the 1872 Mining Law as it relates to ‘Mining Districts’, Mining Districts had no authority to make regulations ‘in conflict with existing Local, State or Federal regulations’, but it did have ADVISORY AUTHORITY SPECIFICALLY. They then told me, in writing, that as soon as The National Association of Mining Districts was organized to the point when we have an established committee of say approximately 12 men, who would be representatives to Congress and The Legislature on finding solutions to the pending serious bottlenecks that inept Federal Surface Mining Agencies have created, and Officially advise these Lawmakers’ on solutions that work to create responsible mining, and stimulate local economies .Since NAMD is precisely a purely community effort, we , as the BLM, look forward eagerly to getting the factual and intelligent advice that will guide us in making regulations that are in compliance with our Federal Mandate.” So they are waiting for us to get our act together, RIGHT NOW. The reason the EPA and Department of The Interior and other Surface Mining related agencies are not getting things done right, is because we as Mining Districts have been dormant on this valuable means to enact change. I have found in starting this effort that Miners are by nature, mostly a rogue type personality, somewhat ant-social. Not trusting many, especially those in Government. Even if you have never heard of NAMD or my name Geo. S. Riddle, look at the Federal Statues that I refer you to stand on. I am merely a messenger. I started this effort in 1997 with John Lacy, the Attorney that wrote the Mining Laws for the State of Arizona, as The Weaver Mining Districts legal counselor so I know my actions will stand under any legal challenges.He is still our Legal Counsel. There is power in numbers. Let us Unite and protect our mining lifestyles, or give it to the dogs. There are many immediate areas we need to influence right away. They are> A. Getting the Moratorium on Mine Patenting annulled, as it is doing nothing but sitting in the middle of a busy area holding up great investments in the USA. B. Attacking and bringing a solution to the Dredging Moratorium in the Mother Lode Ancient River Channels systems of Northern California. C. At least 7 more critical anti-mining Legislative bills in the Congressional process involving many other States, like Nevada, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and others.
