Goldfield
In 1907 Goldfield was the largest city in Nevada, and one of the busiest and brightest mining cities in the west. Goldfield's mine produced $10,000 a day and more. A rich region such as Goldfield is comprised of hundreds, even thousands of mining claims. Initially these were located because of promising outcroppings or thought to be on the same ledge as a rich prospect. Numerous claims were located because there was maybe hope of some ore, or more likely just to be near the action where any patch of ground might be saleable.
