Is an old working under a property here?

The mine records hold 865 mine sites inside the county: 236 past producers, now closed, 432 prospects or occurrences that were never worked, 42 sites producing when the record was made, 13 processing plants, which are not workings, 142 sites with no status in the record; the old survey maps add 2,267 holes drawn inside the county, 87 of them shafts or tunnels. The minerals the records name are Uranium; Gypsum-Anhydrite; 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. No public mine map viewer was found; the AML Division at 1-800-510-0283 answers whether a property is over or near a mined area.

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.

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.

Fremont County lies on the edge of the Green River Region coal field and the coal there is subbituminous, worked mostly at the surface. The two federal files record a shaft, an adit or a deposit where one was drawn on a survey sheet or catalogued as a site; neither file carries the outline of the workings, so the counts above are not the measure of what was mined under this county. The record that shows it is the mine map, held by Wyoming DEQ Abandoned Mine Land Division and linked below.

Wyoming 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.
