Dug by Hand. Crafted by Heart. | Fall 7, Stand 8.
This paper is the long form of how Unique Perspective 8 collects, verifies, and documents stone. It is not a mine permit, not a claim, and not an assay certificate.
Document from river corridor to bench. If a sentence cannot be tied to a date, a place, and a method, it does not belong on a listing.
Governed by the BC Mineral Tenure Act. Recreational collecting is personal and small. An FMC is standing for small-scale commercial collecting and lawful prospecting — not a mine permit. Hand tools only.
Check Crown land, active claims, private property, and parklands before the first hole. Respect existing tenure.
Unceded territory of the Syilx Okanagan Nation. Heritage sites and fossils stay in place. Unexpected find: leave it, record GPS, notify authorities.
Pack out waste. Backfill test pits. Leave no lasting scar on riverbanks.
Permanent field ID at discovery. Card carries date, location, formation, FMC number when applicable, and artisan signature. Studio work is recycled copper or recycled 925 sterling wire, depending on the piece, without resins or coatings.
