In Central City Keets mine workers seized the site over unpaid wages, fortified and armed, with locals sympathetic and fears of bloodshed. New silver and gold discoveries touted by Maj Newson spark optimism, while multiple mines report development progress, new mills planned, and ongoing extraction along Deadwood Creek and surrounding gulches.
