What is on record in Cumming

Old mine sites

Main minerals
Gold

Is an old working under a property here?

The mine records hold 3 mine sites inside the city or town limits: 1 past producer, now closed, 2 prospects or occurrences that were never worked. The mineral the records name is Gold.

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.

The purple dots come off the old survey maps and the darkest of those are shafts and tunnels; the red, green and orange ones are mine records. The pale shapes with a name around it are the neighbouring places, from the Census Bureau. Hover a dot for its name.
