Lucky Dutchman Clark’s Road Drives Nevada Mining Boom
Las Vegas investors Webber and Preddy Schrott have cashed in on the Lucky Dutchman group, sold through Rovery and Childs & Co. Utah incorporation of Lucky Dutchman Mining promises active work on the vein crossing ledges, with seven men stripping a 50 foot wide ore lode. Sampling shows strong gold values per ton, a shaft to be sunk, and plans to rival Goldfield or Bullfrog. Schrott retains Crescent district prospecting, while Senator Thomas Kearns says a Las Vegas rail line will be built, linking to Goldfield via a new north–south route headed by Brock and associates. The project could connect with Goldfield and Bullfrog routes, with a proposed $5,000,000 link to Las Vegas.
