Mining claim records were searched at the Summit, Grand, and Clear Creek County Courthouses to provide a historical overview...Claim recordation files at the Bureau of Land Management State Office were searched...Mines, prospects, and mineralized areas were examined, mapped, and sampled during the field seasons from 1979-1982"--Leaf 3.
