Grubstake.
Back a dig, hold the claim

Stake a claim.
Watch it file.

A real 19th-century American mining custom: a financier stakes a prospector’s costs in exchange for a share of any claim found - a real, litigated contract, not just a handshake. Pick a claim site, stake it once, and get a numbered certificate that moves through survey, assay, and filing on a fixed timeline.
