Please take note this is a federal mining claim not private property. Mining claims are mineral rights to Government Land and the right to extract precious metals. Mining claims are considered real property and can be bought, sold, leased, willed, transferred, etc. You may stay on your claim in a travel trailer or motor home while mining your claim. Fixed or attached buildings are not usually permitted unless a bond is posted for the structures on federal mining claims.
General Claim Description
Eureka Mining Inc.,
is extremely happy to offer our customers a mining claim block capable of making the new owner very rich. If you are serious about mining a set of claims that has unwritten potential look no further. Up for sale is the Evening Star placers and lode claims in a very secluded spot in mining friendly Pershing County, NV. This rare offering contains 5o acres of virgin placer ground and 2 lode claims totaling 41.32 acres, with plenty of water to commence larger operations for both the placers and the hard rock deposits.
The Evening Star Mine is the oldest mine in the Trinity District and the historic ore grades are an astounding to 0 dollars per ton in the 1800's at .93. That is an incredible 1.58 ounces to 37 ounces per ton, very high grade.
On the claims are several incline shafts and adits. Many of the adits and inclines are partially blocked by small amounts of material at the portal, but would be easy to open back up. There are decent roads already in place to most of the portals. Also on site is remnants (foundations) from the old mills and numerous pieces of steel and relics. On the placer claims in the canyon a few hundred feet below the hard rock workings is lush willows, grass and springs. Year round water is easily obtainable on the claims. The placer claims cover almost a half mile of Trinity Canyon and from what I have read and seen look completely virgin. A primitive 2 wheel drive access road leads to the claims and is very secluded but yet only 11-12 miles from Lovelock. In Lovelock you can obtain most of your essential supplies while mining. Lovelock is the county seat of Pershing County. For other supplies Reno is only an hour and a half from Lovelock.

History At The Evening Star Mine
The Trinity District is in Trinity Canyon the east flank of the Trinity Range 11 miles north of Lovelock. It was discovered in 1859 by George Lovelock. The principal property is the Evening Star Mine, which produced considerable rich ore in the early days. Some ore was hauled to Sacramento by ox team and shipped to Swansen, Wales for treatment. A small mill built at the Evening Star mine in the early days operated for several years. In fact this was the site of the first mill in NV. Lessees worked the property intermittently from 1914 to 1916 and shipped some ore. The mine was re-opened by Mendham and associates, and several lots of ore totaling 13 tons and averaging per ton net (2.6 ozs per ton) were shipped to the smelters in 1935. In the fall of 1935 a small Gibson mill was installed, and about 25 tons of ore were treated. The ore milled is reported to have averaged per ton (1.44 ozs per ton). Mining was done by hand methods.
The Evening Star property is developed by several adits and total workings are 1500 feet. Ore occurs in two parallel veins in granite. Values are in gold and silver. The gold is free and associated with iron oxide. A little copper and zinc are present in some of the ore. The gangue is hard, laminated quartz. The width of the veins ranges from several inches to 3 1/2 feet, averaging about 1 1/2 feet. The veins dip 55 degrees. The mill equipment consists of a 5-ton Gibson mill, a 1 foot by 5 foot silver plated amalgamating plate, and a small concentrate table. The capacity of the plant is reported to only be 1/2 ton of ore in 8 hours, Power for milling and pumping is furnished by a 7HP Satley gasoline engine. Water for milling is pumped from a well 24 feet deep sunk in the canyon a short distance above the mill. Amalgamation and table concentration is reported to recover only about 60% of the gold and silver.
Trinity District was discovered in 1859. Early production was about 30,000 tons of ore with Ag, Au, Pb, Sb and Cu valued at to 0 per ton. Production from two mines the Evening Star & Morning Star grossed about ,000,000.
All information obtained in this listing was obtained from the Nevada Bureau of Mines.
Year Round Stream That Originates From A Spring On The Claims
Main Large Spring On The Claims
