Pointers on Mill Sites and Mining Patent Rules
The article outlines that mill sites under mining laws may be located and recorded. Mill site owners may remove timber for mining improvements but not for sale. When a mill site ties to a lode claim, the $500 expenditure applies to the lode claim, not the mill site. Up to five acres may be included in one patent application. Mill sites on railroad land pass to the railroad after grant. Adverse claims protect a mill site when it is inside another party’s lode claim application.
