Local record guide
Local profile
Lakewood, a place of 155,984 people, is in Jefferson County, whose county seat is Golden. Court and property records sit with Jefferson County, and birth and death certificates come from the State of Colorado. Lakewood's own offices are in the cards above, and our Jefferson County page lists each county office.
Abandoned mine records
Where the workings are, and the office that holds the mine maps.
From the old mine records
The mine records hold 15 mine sites inside the city or town limits: 1 past producer, now closed, 10 prospects or occurrences that were never worked, 3 sites producing when the record was made, 1 processing plant, which is not a working; the old survey maps add 40 holes drawn inside the city or town limits, 11 of them shafts or tunnels. The minerals the records name are Clay; construction sand and gravel; Iron.
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.
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.
Lakewood sits over the Denver 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 town. The record that shows it is the mine map, held by DRMS Data: electronic documents and mining activity map and linked below.
Colorado 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.
