Welcome to New Mexico's first and oldest gold prospecting organization!​

If you are looking for an active gold prospecting organization, where you can learn and engage in serious gold prospecting, then the Gold Prospectors Association of New Mexico (GPANM) may be for you. Here at GPANM our members have access to numerous claims around the state, including several only 45 minutes from Albuquerque. Our mission is to allow our members access to profitable mining claims. We often have monthly outings that encourage members to be active gold prospectors, with an emphasis on sharing knowledge and tips on gold prospecting. We pride ourselves on being good stewards of the land and good neighbors to fellow claim and property owners.  Come to our next meeting and join in on the experience!

GPANM Purpose as outlined in our By-Laws
​

The ​​Purpose of this organization is to promote fellowship and understanding among men and women engage in mining and to protect the rights given us under the U.S. Mining Law of 1872; to serve as a platform for the exchange of ideas and information about prospecting; and how to obtain the most enjoyment and success from prospecting in our area.

Join in the experience at our meetings!

Experience the excitement of meeting with a group of prospectors who share the same passion of prospecting for gold in New Mexico. If you're interested in joining, or are just curious to meet some prospectors, come to our monthly meetings. We meet at the Los Griegos Community Center, which is on the east side of the Los Griegos Health and Social Service Center. Parking is on the west side. (See the map below.) The meetings are held on the 3rd Thursday of each month (except December), they start at 6:00PM and run about 2 hours. In December, we do not have a general meeting. However, we do have our annual Christmas potluck party. To learn more about becoming a GPANM member, click on this How to Join link.
