Is an old working under a property here?

The mine records hold 101 named mine sites inside the city or town limits, 94 of them worked out or abandoned; the old survey maps add 69 holes drawn inside the city or town limits, 5 of them shafts or tunnels. The minerals the records name are Gold; Antimony; 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.
