RE:Local Authority
RE:Local Authority@Frank1971 --Thats good to hear!
We always like talking to people who want to hear and know more about our area.
I can tell you right now, I have walked all over their claims since I was a kid. My dad in fact actually worked at the Conisil mine and often told me stories of how they would spend days mining for silver only to come up with Cobalt. Which back then wasn't really a terrible thing but not what they where looking for.
I have personally found Cobalt and Cobalt bloom just sitting on surface. The amount of Tailings and waste piles from the old mines is really incredible.
The area is still rich with silver and not to mention the massive amounts of Cobalt in the ground. I cant wait for the snow to be gone so i can go out and take more pictures of the claims and the area to share with you all.
I also have a family member who worked in the Mill right up until the day it closed a couple years back and they said it ran like a top. using Fusion cores to seperate the silver, cobalt and arsenic from the tailings ? not sure if that makes a lot of sense to you or not.
I want to see CSK and CPO and every other company looking for cobalt do well, its my home and ive grown up hearing the stories of the days the town was a roaring hen house of people working and living in the great white north.
I hope one day i can tell my kids about the day the town got its second lease on life.
