Gold mining on adjacent property

[Citydude]

I'm glad that it seems to have worked out for you so far.

As far as water tankers, where there is a will, there is a way. Worst case might be a water pump from somewhere down below to the drill rig.

The property looks gorgeous. Congratulation!

All the best,

Peter

Thank you. It's a lot to manage but rewarding.

Citydude, 26 or 27 degrees is the maximum gradient for most trucks.

Thanks for that info. I was wondering what the max was.

They have a very well thought out plan and at this point they will be avoiding those types of grades.

The only problem is it's a 27% grade to the area on their property. Can a tandem axle water truck climb a 27% grade?

You should make sure you are talking the same units. Citydude asked about 27% grade, redman135 answered with a spec in degrees.

27% grade is 15 degrees.
51% grade is 27 degrees.

It's 27%. Thanks for pointing that out.

It's still not a done deal yet. There are issues with a neighbor that is contesting the easement. Basically wanting to control what we do with our property.

John-Mc, you are right, I misread the % as degrees.
