Deposit THIS CLAIM GROUP OVERLIES AREA COVERED BY 0530070269 AND IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE EARLIEST CLAIM GROUPS IN THE AREA. I CHANGED THE LOCATION FROM HUNTTING TO REFLECT THE DESCRIPTION IN HODGES (P. 78 AND LEAVENWORTH MINING DISTRICT MAP). THE LEAVENWORTH MINING DISTRICT AND CHIWAWA MINING DISTRICT APPARENTLY COVER SOME OF THE SAME LAND.
