Looks like some good info. I tried looking up a place I know about, but they had the wrong coordinates for it, they were off by about a mile at least. That is OK, though, since I know where it is, ha ha.

Not every mine in Arizona will be on here, only the ones they have record of. Still lots of little rabbit holes out there that everyone forgot about. What may not have been profitable at $35 an ounce back in the day, could very well be profitable at $1000+ an ounce now.

Also, if you are looking into Arizona History, you can access online UofA's DRSW Database (Desert Relations of the South West). It is a repository of old period documents.

I've gotta get back down there, and take a look around when I get time. If I get laid off again, I'm sure I'll have plenty of time to do it.
