Gold Gulch Mining and Milling Co. Stock CertificateThis piece is an Ebay exclusive. We are only offering this piece here!
The Gold Gulch Mining and Milling Co. was incorporated in Nevada on September 7, 1929 to take over the properties of the the London Silver-Lead Company.
The company's properties were located in the Marietta District of Mineral County.
The area was extensively prospected by the well-known prospector F.M. "Borax" Smith, and Teel's Marsh near Marietta is often credited with providing Smith his start in the borax business (having earlier been a more common silver and gold prospector). However, before Smith came to the area it had been periodically mined for salt, which was used in the processing of ore in the Virginia City, Aurora, and Bodie, California mills. The use of camels to transport salt to Virginia City has often been quoted, although there is some dispute whether this actually took place. Mule teams were the more usual method of transporting the salt. F.M. Smith began serious scraping and processing of the borax and salt deposits starting in 1872, mainly from deposits on nearby Teels Marsh.
