Mining document providing a quarterly assessment of the mines in White Pine County. Dated to March 1870, the beginning of the gold and silver mining rushes in eastern Nevada. Document measures 27 ¼" x 15" when unfolded. Five small sheets are glued together with the top and bottom sections (about 3" each) printed, and the majority of information in manuscript. Docketed in manuscript. Signed and dated by the county auditor Warren J. Lockhart. A couple ½" or less closed tears along folds and minor creasing, else very good. This document contains 57 mine entries with number of tons of ore extracted, value per ton, dollar amount per ton deducted by law, total value, and amount of tax. This exciting quarterly assessment was written up just after the silver strike in Hamilton in the White Pine district. The amount of ore taken is quite impressive and some of the mines are of note. For that quarter alone, Aurora Consolidated produced $95,734; Consoliadated Chloride Flat $59,762; Eberhardt $34,011; Aurora Consolidated $33,022; and Original Hidden Treasure $27,334.
