This is a truly unique gift that gives the recipient a genuine stake in a real goldmine in the world famous Yukon territory in Canada, where the popular 1896 gold rush began. This is possible thanks to a British man called Dorian Amos who gave up his comfortable life in the UK and moved his family out to the wilds of northern Canada. There he built a log cabin for his wife and son, and laid his claim. Now you can share in their adventure with a real stake in Dorian’s goldmine.
The gift pack “Own a Stake in a Real Gold Mine” includes a copy of his book “The Good Life” which tells their inspiring story. You will receive it in a stylish metal gift box containing: a welcome letter, maps & information on the area, the 200 page book “The Good Life” by Dorian Amos. Upon completion of the enclosed registration card, you will also receive a personalised certificate confirming your stake in the goldmine. Now you can sit back and see if you can strike in rich in the Yukon territory, without even having to go there or having to move a finger.
