Burke Mine May Prove a Bonanza in Nevada
Ore akin to the Ophir mine material has been found on a ledge north of Virginia City in the Burke district. James Burke originally prospected during the Comstock era, and now his son William Burke with James George are sinking a shaft to tap the vein. Copper ore exceeding 1 percent is being mined, with early reports of ore grading over 1100 per ton across the face. Mining engineer McRoss may visit and consider an option, as the property draws renewed attention.
