Skylab photos and University of Utah geology findings point to a potential large copper deposit 233 miles east of Ely Nevada near Highway 50. Dr. M Leroy Jensen warns drilling costs are high but Kennecott geologists monitor the area for possible ore, while skeptics question space based prospecting validity. The Nevada claim could rival NASA budget scales if proven, fueling a tense space mining debate.
