Field intelligence. Development records. Equipment guides. No fake certainty.
Field
Notes.
MR POCKET Field Notes is the working library behind the brand: practical prospecting guides, physical-development records, design standards, platform briefs, and original-world development. The class on each note tells you what kind of information you are reading.
Physical work has the floor.
Riverbone Pan
Active recovery program focused on controlled stratification, predictable wash behavior, and geometry that must earn its place through repeatable field testing.
Open engineering dossier → ACTIVE BUILD / HARDWARERiverbone Scoop
Flagship recovery program. The signal gets you close; Riverbone Scoop is being engineered for the decisive inches that follow.
Open engineering dossier →Active Build means physical engineering or prototype work is underway. It does not mean production-ready, for sale, or validated for final claims.
Useful before promotional.
Metal Detecting Recovery Tools: Build a Better Treasure-Hunting Kit
A practical guide to metal detecting recovery tools—pinpointers, diggers, scoops, pouches, carry systems, and terrain-specific gear for cleaner target recovery.
Open field guide → EQUIPMENT GUIDE / FIELD REFERENCEGold Prospecting Tools Explained: What Each Tool Actually Does
Gold pans, classifiers, scoops, picks, crevice tools, detectors, pinpointers, buckets, and recovery surfaces—what each prospecting tool does and when it earns a place.
Open field guide → EQUIPMENT GUIDE / FIELD REFERENCEGold Prospecting Gear Checklist: What You Actually Need in the Field
A practical gold prospecting gear checklist organized by field role, terrain, and method—so you carry what helps and leave the dead weight behind.
Open field guide →Field Guides answer practical prospecting, equipment, and recovery questions. They are educational references, not development records and not disguised product claims.
Real programs. Different maturity.
Words have
weight.
Known
A requirement, observation, or specification supported by direct evidence and scoped to what was actually tested.
Current direction
The best working design or engineering direction at this stage. It can change when prototypes, testing, or manufacturing expose a better answer.
Needs proof
A reasoned expectation worth testing. It does not become a performance claim because it sounds technically convincing.
One library.
Clear hierarchy.
Physical Equipment
Active builds and the hardware pipeline remain the company’s primary development record.
Hardware records ↑ 02 / FIELD INTELLIGENCEEquipment + Recovery Guides
Practical prospecting guidance organized around method, terrain, recovery, and equipment roles.
Open guides ↑ 03 / STANDARDSystem + Standards
The operating rules and system thinking that keep branding from outrunning proof.
Browse notes ↓ 04 / PLATFORMPowered by RQVN
Optional identity, ownership, documentation, service, and support infrastructure provided through a separate supporting platform.
Browse notes ↓ 05 / ORIGINAL WORLDThe Lost Vein
A separate digital prospecting world—not a substitute for the physical equipment business.
Browse notes ↓Development records should survive scrutiny.
The evidence protocol applies to hardware and technical development records. Educational Field Guides are labeled separately so practical guidance is not dressed up as engineering validation.
- 01PROBLEMWhat field failure or opportunity are we solving?
- 02OBLIGATIONWhat must the product or system measurably do?
- 03METHODPrototype, controls, environment, sample, or comparison.
- 04RESULTWhat actually happened, including inconvenient outcomes.
- 05DECISIONKeep, change, kill, retest, or escalate.
Chronology,
with context.
Every published note stays visible, but its class makes the purpose clear: guide, hardware record, standard, platform brief, world brief, or field note.

Why Prospecting Gear Should Work as a System
Open note →Development records preserve what changed. Field Guides are reviewed as guidance evolves. We do not quietly blur one class into another just because a stronger label sounds more impressive.
Follow what changes.
Practical field guides, prototype lessons, controlled test results, meaningful failures, development decisions, and first access when the work is actually ready.
