RE:@ PatchhBR I do not see drill companies in the village.. that valley get really crummy weather events in winter..
it will B 25 @ yet and 35 @ Walker Lake... otw - 2 date I hav not seen new drill companies dropping anchor in the area.
somewhere it printed that the mine wanted to start driling below ground in the shaft..
@ Gabbs Nevada.. down the road - 10.5 % copper was step mined off the face of mountains..
several years later the miners from the Inyo Camps went bak in and re-mined the gold in the overburden..
there may B a mega biggie secret in that area & that 2000 foot underfground mine @ 2% is N reality a wildcatt looking 4 a mother load. there are some piks of blue rocks from surface scratching/somewhere..
not inmportant.. the big pik is sale or thereabouts.. the govenors office will blow a cork w any of the silly blabber suggesting otherwise...
the village itself is quiet.. manny of the contractors from Elko or the Nevada Gold affiliates left the village last fall..
i did see a new catt dump 640 being hauled into the village -- yesterday
