Old-New topic: do you believe the LDM exists and has not been found and cleaned out in modern times?

I have never hiked in the Superstitions looking for the ldm, but based on what I have read in books and on many forums over the years, it seems likely to me that Waltz's mine, which I believe existed, has been worked out. However, I would like to beat this dead horse once again and hear what many mo...

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION - Anything related to the LDM

Brad, Your answer is intriguing. There was a reason Walz left Germany? Since you seem unwilling to shed light on the reason, it leaves one to think he was in some kind of trouble, perhaps with the law. However interesting that story may be, though, it doesn't have anything to do with the ldm, does i...

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION - Anything related to the LDM

Brad,
Here I am again with more questions for you. Can you shed any light ,from your own personal knowledge, of Waltz's life in Germany? Do you know if he ever sent any gold or money home to relatives? Did any of his family ever emigrate to the U.S.?

Re: Another Discovery for Silent Hunter Crew

Fascinating! Anything new to report? I'd love to have some pieces of that quartz just to add to my mineral collection.

Re: Herman Petrasch

I just finished reading all six pages of this thread and would like to ask if anyone recorded Dr. Glover's talk on Saturday night at the rendevous? Could it be transcribed and posted? Also, about the Herman Petrasch article-it really opens up a can of worms, doesn't it? Suddenly we learn about a gol...

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION - Anything related to the LDM

Brad, Then you have no personal knowledge handed down to you of Waltz having killed anyone? The two major sources on Waltz, Sims Ely and Dick Holmes, say, respectively, that he killed two men by accident whom he thought were Apaches working the mine, or that he killed his nephew and two or three oth...

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION - Anything related to the LDM

Hooch,
We're talking about a huge area, right? And the mine is in a Godawful rough place? What are the chances anyone would know?

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION - Anything related to the LDM

Brad, Can you tell us how the mine was concealed when you first found it? Also, Waltz said he had made two caches of gold near the mine, that he had taken one out, but that the other one was still there. He also said you couldn't find the caches without finding the mine. That one is a little had to ...

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION - Anything related to the LDM

Hi, Brad, Thanks for the tip on the knees. Never heard of that one before. I was aware of the ph issue. Some years ago a very good friend was diagnosed with cancer and I spent weeks researching alternative natural treatments. I came up with the ph connection as well as many other things. Thankfully ...

Re: GENERAL DISCUSSION - Anything related to the LDM

Hi, Action 14,
That sounds more like the traditional description of Waltz's mine we have from Julia and Reiney and John Reed. Maybe Brad has found a different working?
