Description

Rare opportunity to own one of Montana's most historically significant mining claims. The Monte Cristo Claim a true gem in Montana's mining legacy. This is a mining claim for sale only, not a homestead or recreational parcel. This mine was once one of the largest producers in the entire southwestern quadrant of the state. Prior to 1937, recorded production totaled 19,872 ounces of silver and 1,050 ounces of gold. Even today, the remaining separator still reveals rich veins of silver in quartz, and with a keen eye and a good loupe, long hairs of visible gold can be found. This standard-sized 20-acre claim (1500' x 600') has been carefully cut to intercept not only the historic mine shafts but also the original mining camp and processing site. Whether you're a prospector, historian, or investor, the Monte Cristo Mining Claim offers a rare chance to own a piece of Montana's storied mining past.
