Panke Claim Staking Services staked 1058 mining claims for clients in 2022, which is our all time high. For context, in 2020-2021 we staked around 1600 claims over the two year span, so 2022 was a jump up. Normally, the majority of our work is in Idaho, but in 2022, less than 50% of our claim staking occurred here. Wyoming was busy, and we also made trips to Washington and Montana.
Quality on every mining claim
We don’t care about getting bigger and shooting for 1500 mining claims in 2023 and then more in 2024. After all, there’s a lot of hunting, fishing and general living that needs to get done too, right? Our focus is on staking every job to the best of our ability. On all 1058 claims in 2022, we stayed true to our commitment to performing the highest quality of work for clients. You can see our definition of high quality work in the bulleted list on our home page:
What we staked
We don’t talk much about the mining claims that we stake, even after the job is done. We let our clients do the talking in their press releases. However, we won’t tell you that you’re wrong if you venture to guess that much of what we staked has been much in the news over the past year as the U.S. government updated its list of critical minerals, as found here.
