El Dorado County, California

[edit]

Not to be confused with the tramway to the Gentle Annie mine in El Dorado County, California, which is shown here: "The Gentle Annie Mine is an old location, having had a mill on it twenty-five years ago, all of which had been removed and the mine abandoned. Lately it has been resuscitated. There are a series of four veins on this claim, varying in thickness; they are respectively two feet, ten feet, eighteen feet, and twelve feet wide. A tunnel has been driven across all four for a distance of three hundred and fifty feet. At a depth of one hundred feet from the surface, the first vein was cut by the tunnel. A new tunnel has been started at the north end of the mine. It is connected by a tramway with the ten-stamp mill, the ore in which yields $4 per ton in free gold; carrying also 5 per cent of sulphurets, worth from $50 to $80 per ton." --NearEMPTiness (talk) 21:29, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
