Geologist Finch Testifies On Nipper Vein Reality in Butte Trial
Colorado state geologist J W Finch testified for the defense in the Nipper case, tracing the blue vein through the Nipper claim and rejecting the existence of a separate Nipper vein. He described parallel driftings, aplite and blue vein relationships, and the lack of persistent mineralization in the Nipper apex drift. The cross examination covered his qualifications and extensive mining experience, with the trial continuing the next day.
