SANP How does Santo Mining select its claims?

Carefully, and with a great deal of analysis of a number of factors. Areas of high interest to me include territory where the locals are active in small-scale exploration and around Spanish Colonial mine works. When I see Dominicans going into the rivers following heavy rains to search out and find gold nuggets, or areas where farmers with backhoes are processing material on a small scale for gold, we conclude that there is a reasonable probability of gold close by–possibly of an economic scale.
