Records behind them
3 records for 2 sites, the rest are the same working written down more than once
The mine records hold 2 mine sites inside the city or town limits: 1 past producer, now closed, 1 site producing when the record was made. The mineral the records name is Beryllium.
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.
Westminster: 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
Westminster 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.
