SHAFTORE · GOLDLEVELSHEADFRAMESECTION · ILLUSTRATIVE

Drawn as an underground mine, reached by a shaft or tunnel and worked along the ore. The ore color stands for gold. Federal records note the kind of operation and its status, not its depth or layout, so this is a typical example rather than a survey of this site.
