mineral county: Mineral County's Mining History - 1897 Along Quartz & McFarland Creeks - 08/30/08 02:27 PM

An interesting news clip that I just came across from the Mineral County Historical Society is from the Mineral Independent (from the Missoulian 20 years earlier) August 31, 1933. It references Quartz Creek and its tributaries where we currently have properties listing - and mining claims! I can just picture visiting an old miner's cabin and walking in and seeing their "pay" - a bowl full
