New Process Sparks Salt Lake Interest in Collett Mine
Salt Lake investors led by Clawson and Dodge toured the Collett mine near Lincoln county. They reported ore on the dump and assayed yields from $16.85 to $32 per ton. A new ore-reduction process could raise profits to about $150,000 from $22,000, with an estimated $50,000 needed for mine opening and a four month equipment install. About twenty five workers would be hired initially. The site offers gravity tunnel, water power, and abundant fuel, with mining expert Clawson praising the mineral-bearing potential of the surrounding region.
