The General Mining Act of 1872 is a United States federal law that authorizes and governs prospecting and mining for economic minerals, such as gold, platinum, and silver, on federal public lands. This law, approved on May 10, 1872, codified the informal system of acquiring and protecting mining claims on public land, formed by prospectors in California and Nevada from the late 1840s through the 1860s, such as during the California Gold Rush.All citizens of the United States of America 18 years or older have the right under the 1872 mining law to locate a lode (hard rock) or placer (gravel) mining claim on federal lands open to mineral entry. These claims may be located once a discovery of a locatable mineral is made. Locatable minerals include but are not limited to platinum, gold, silver

  • Le General Mining Act de 1872 est une loi fédérale américaine du 10 mai 1872 qui permet et régit la prospection et l'extraction minière de métaux précieux, tels que l'or et l'argent, sur les terres appartenant à l'administration fédérale. Cette loi venait légaliser et éclairer le système informel qui s'était développé pendant la ruée vers l'or en Californie et au Nevada entre les années 1840 et 1860 ainsi que d'autres lois à ce sujet comme les lois Chaffee.
