Records behind them
11 records for 10 sites, the rest are the same working written down more than once
The mine records hold 5 mine sites inside the city or town limits: 1 prospect or occurrence that was never worked, 3 sites producing when the record was made, 1 processing plant, which is not a working; the old survey maps add 5 holes drawn inside the city or town limits, 0 of them shafts or tunnels. The mineral the records name is 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. Colorado's cover is a protection program run by DRMS, not an insurance policy sold by insurers.
Fountain: the boundary from the Census Bureau, and one dot for each old mine or hole on record inside it. 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.Colorado mine map and abandoned mine records
