Is an old working under a property here?

The mine records hold 82 named mine sites inside the county, 74 of them worked out or abandoned; the old survey maps add 8 holes drawn inside the county, 0 of them shafts or tunnels. The minerals the records name are Barium-Barite; Lead, Zinc; construction sand and gravel.

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.

Camden County: 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.

Rows taken off the old survey maps open the USGS record of what sits at that spot, because no single feature on those maps has a page of its own. Rows from the mine records open their own USGS page.

Check with the mine map office named here before you rely on it, and have a qualified engineer look at any ground you are worried about.
