Arizona Gold Prospecting

Visit http://goldwaterland.com/goldmine.html - The mine was a profitable producer of Gold and Silver until 1942 when production ceased permanently because of World War II. The mine was first discovered in March 1904 and was worked intermittently until 1934, at which time a cyanide mill was constructed that operated until the war. At the time of the Government ordered shutdown of US Mining operations, the Pilgrim Mine was operational but no mining has been done since.
