Land and Mining Decisions in Wasarveroy November 18
Reports from Copp's Land Owner for November detail Interior Department rulings on mining cases. A declaration of pre emption does not invalidate rights without an adverse claim, and ex parte evidence after hearing is rejected except for a new hearing basis. Town site entries do not bar lode patent rights, and surface land remains essential for mining operations. In Comstock era cases, Sutro tunnel effects are considered, but mine owners retain control if compliant with the law.
