Lve2fsh Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Cool pics. Is that all private property? I'm surprised someone doesn't carry more of the stuff away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen in MT Posted January 1, 2008 Author Share Posted January 1, 2008 Basically I think this old mill did what this new mill does (see site) http://www.marthamine.co.nz/ore_process.html This I think was mostly a silver mine/plant as most everything around here was silver. I went up hill thru the woods to get to this site and on my way out I took the old road and came across some old Private Property signs, so I guess it was private but no mine Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lve2fsh Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Private or public land I just think it's cool that stuff like that is still around. Thanks for keeping us looking forward to the next POTD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
