Silver Ores Sparked Pioche Nevada Mining Boom
In 1864 Pioche ore yielded to a five stamp mill move toward Panaca and a gamble by John Ely and William Raymond. After $900,000 invested with only $20,000 bullion recovered, they secured claims from the Burke brothers for $35,000, paid by gold watch, and by January 1870 the mill tested at $300 per ton with 78 percent metal. News of the strike drew capital from Salt Lake City and San Francisco.
