Notes
- ↑ The mine location description is from a 1956 newspaper article included in the mine notes, at Seventh Avenue andGrant Place. A point was digitized at the intersection as shown on the 1:24000 USGS topographic map. The filling in the abandoned shaft had shifted after heavy rains and an 8-foot pit resulted, which was filled in 1956.
