In 1982, I was with a group of investors that were trying to develop gold mining in the rivers of the Osa. A realtor down there says he has bought gold nuggets time to time. Anybody there hear anything lately or know of any property for sale?
StanThe Osa peninsula is certainly a most beautiful & magical place and I hope you find the real estate property you’re looking for–clear title and all since much of the land there is not titled. Follow Scott’s website advice & get title work done. Please know that some pretty intense gold & real estate scams have been hatched out there against Canadians & other expats. As far as the gold mining goes, most of the gold was obtained from inside Corcovado National Park and the CR gov’t paid a sort of “relocation fee” to many miners years ago (when there were actually mining communities working & living there) so that they would leave the Park. It is illegal to mine within the Park area now and although it may not be illegal to pan for gold in the adjacent rivers, I hope that no one is enticed to contaminate those life-rich rivers for a bounty that is just not there.
