Just to reiterate a point in the article, just because you’ve got mining claims doesn’t mean you can just come in and start digging, you need written permission from the landowner before any mining related work can begin (even test holes)
They might have to pay for right of way and damages, but it's next to impossible to prevent resource companies from accessing mineral rights.
