Abandoned mine records
Old mine workings in Auburn
Where the workings are, and the office that holds the mine maps.
The mine records hold 1 named mine site inside the city or town limits, 0 of them worked out or abandoned; the old survey maps add 1 hole drawn inside the city or town limits, 0 of them shafts or tunnels.
A point in either file is a location, not a property line: the sheet shows the opening on the surface, not the rooms under it. The record that shows what runs under a parcel is the mine map. The OSMRE National Mine Map Repository holds scanned underground mine maps and answers requests for a named mine or an area. Georgia publishes no abandoned mine inventory; the Dahlonega gold mines are not mapped by the state online.
Auburn: the boundary from the Census Bureau, and one dot for each old mine or hole on record inside it. Purple is a shaft or a tunnel. Hover a dot for its name.Georgia mine map and abandoned mine records
Georgia abandoned mine maps ranks every county and town in the state by the workings recorded inside it, names the office that holds the mine maps, and says what to do if the ground moves.
