Hughes Wins Case in Mineral Land Dispute at Missoula
The decision affirms that the land under Hughes additional homestead entry No. 2052 is non mineral. The commission finds mining claims on the site uneconomical, with ore assays inconclusive and no proven value, while agricultural and grazing use is viable. The ruling highlights contested assay certificates and weight of evidence in judging the land’s true character.
