Golden Hetty Green Mine Still Yields Rich Vein 3900 Feet Down
Hetty Green’s legendary mine near the Mother Lode country continues to pay. At Central Eureka workings, the old Hetty Green vein yields five to nine ounces of gold per ton, extending the fortune she built long ago. Geologists note the vein is a continuation of the famous Hoosier/Hetty Green deposit, with the mine once shut as yields declined and later reopened under Central Eureka ownership.
