The large Utah mine out west of Fish Springs is in the process of re-opening. I've now met the geologists(twice in fact) in charge of this and they say they are after large deposits of either galena or cadmium... I can't remember which for sure... which ever metal it is the Geologists both said it was used in the galvanizing industry. A friend of mine has the claim on the Wilson Mine which is literally right next door to the Utah and the folks that are opening the Utah back up tried to take his claim right out from under him... Aside from the fact that he has done alot of improvement work on the Wilson Mine... all out of pocket... its also been in his family since the early 1900's, and yes, his lastname is Wilson. After much negotiation he has things straightened out as far as his family's claim goes. The Utah Mine claim in this area by a Denver Company now extends clear down to the Cactus Mine which is very close to the right hand turn that heads off to Calaio. There is now a gate protecting access to the Utah as well as the Wilson Mines. While the Wilson Mine is a "hobby mine" and you'd be very welcome there the Utah is guarded so don't tresspass. Note that the Utah Mine also includes the Early Harvest Shaft, Galena Mine, Emma Mine, And Vulcan Mine.
