Individual mines within the IKFD are grouped into subdistricts and discussed below. The individual mines were sometimes named after the mining company, but other mines were given various monikers, such as Black Jack, Interstate, Good Hope, Empire, and Eureka. Some veins extended across several property lines and had several shafts. For example, when a new shaft was sunk along the southwest extension of the Empire Vein (Empire Mine) on the Redd property, the new shaft and the mine became known as Redd. Portions of the following information were extracted directly from ISGS publications and maps (Denny et al. 2008a, 2010, 2011, 2013; Denny and Counts 2009; Seid et al. 2013a, 2013b; Denny and Seid 2014; Devera et al. 2016). Additional information may be found in 7.5-minute quadrangle geologic maps and reports available at the ISGS (http://www.isgs.illinois.edu/maps/isgs-quads).

Individual mines within the IKFD are grouped into subdistricts and discussed below. The individual mines were sometimes named after the mining company, but other mines were given various monikers, such as Black Jack, Interstate, Good Hope, Empire, and Eureka. Some veins extended across several property lines and had several shafts. For example, when a new shaft was sunk along the southwest extension of the Empire Vein (Empire Mine) on the Redd property, the new shaft and the mine became known as Redd. Portions of the following information were extracted directly from ISGS publications and maps[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Additional information may be found in 7.5-minute quadrangle geologic maps and reports available at the ISGS (http://www.isgs.illinois.edu/maps/isgs-quads).
