Certain Federal Laws are in place that allow you to prospect and locate claims on land open to a mineral entry. The laws vary from state to state regarding how to stake mining claims therefore it is wise to check the state laws that pertain to where you want to stake a claim. You must also be a United States citizen or have a declared intention of becoming a United States citizen in order to have ownership of a claim.
According to Federal Laws the boundaries of your claim must be distinctly and clearly marked to be identifiable on the ground and the manner in doing so is governed by each individual state. It is a must to file the proper documents for the claim you wish to own with the BLM and the requirements for such can be found at the state or district BLM office. These claims are not free and require a few small fees in order to register them, although all the fees together add up to roughly 135 dollars.
