Slowly working on Pin's for the 1903ish USGS topographic map on my site I have these additions;
→ I been able to ID the Discovery Shaft and a second shaft workings for the Ide lode claim on more northwestern Big Bull Mountain up towards Victor Pass area.
→ Which prompted me to add another image from my collection, as that image in my local high-resolution scan at 1200dpi has structures at these shafts! Sadly for you, I only share my 300dpi scan, but I am working on close up shots linked to the various lodes.

Due to various reason I have during last few weeks worked somewhat with parts linked to the 1903 USGS topographic map on my site with some more places now marked out;
→ Added in a marking of the main working shaft on Rob Roy Lode claim on Gold Hill.
→ Added what I believe is the Discovery Shaft of the Little King Lode on Gold Hill.
→ Added the Discovery Shaft of the Sherman Lode on Gold Hill, just southwest of the Short Line loop in south Cripple Creek town.
→ Marked the working shaft on the Yellow Bird Lode claim, just southeast of Cripple Creek town and along the Short Line just as it approaches the bridge across Midland Terminal.
→ Marked the working shaft for the Red Bird Lode claim, also known as the National Mine, this shaft is in reality located on the Yellow Bird claim as far as I can tell from my maps, but on the border line almost. Neighbor to the Yellow Bird shaft, southeast of Cripple Creek town and along the Short Line just as it approaches the bridge across Midland Terminal.
→ Marked a shaft on the Sherman Lode on Gold Hill, just south of Cripple Creek town.
→ Marked a shaft on the Ella Lode claim on Raven Hill; what the Plat Map show as a Shaft house seems to fit quite well a marking for a prospect on the 1903 topo-map.
→ Added what I believe is the Discovery Shaft of the Golden Wedge Lode claim on Raven Hill.
→ Added, corrected pins marking out ID50; Worlds Fair Lode claim and mine on lower Gold Hill.
→ Marked another Shaft on the Caledonia on lower Gold Hill.
→ Added pins for two Shafts and a Prospect hole on the Lone Jack Lode claim on lower Gold Hill.
→ Marked a shaft on Molly Dwyre Lode claim on Gold Hill.

Published in the February 13, 1908 issue of the Mining Science, formerly known as Mining Reporter, of Denver, pages 172->173.
04.03.2023
Due to fixing some other stuff I have done some fixes to my pins on the 1903 USGS topographic map on my site for some Rosebud/Beacon Hill mines;
→ The Henry Adney Mine pin was at wrong location, so I fixed it, putting it on what appears as a Prospect type of shaft on the map!
→ Added the Discovery Shaft on the Buckeye Lode claim, part of the old Gold group. The Old Gold Tunnel is just northeast of this shaft, not visible on the topo-map though.
→ Added the Discovery Shaft on the Geneveve Lode claim, which is the one I used to have marked as the Henry Adney, but I now know that was wrong of me and I will also say partly the USGS people creating the numbering on the 1903 topo-map as the location of the number 332 is just wrong!
→ I also added in a non-visible shaft of the estimated location of the Old Gold Lode claim Discovery Shaft, in addition to put the main working shaft known as Old Gold where it is suppose to be based on the various maps I have access to.
→ I also added in the tunnel portal of what the USGS people called the Australia Tunnel on a map from their 1906 Report of the District, coming from the Australia Lode claim higher up on Beacon Hill with branches going to various places. I suspect this tunnel to have a different name though at the Portal area.
→ Lastly, I added in a Shaft on the Lonaconing Lode, this shows on some images I have seen.
03.03.2023
Today I uploaded another small not much interesting article from old texts, an text about Fuel Economy of Boiler Furnaces in C. C. District , giving a brief overview with some company mine names. Published in the September 22, 1906 issue of the Mining Reporter of Denver, pages 521->522.
01.03.2023
Due to a question from a friend I have had to do some fixes to my pins on the 1903 USGS topographic map on my site;
→ The Christmas Mine pin was at wrong location, fixed it and added several Shafts, including the Likely location of the Discovery Shaft.
→ The La Bella Mine marking is a north shaft of that lode claim, as the main or Discovery Shaft is more where the Golden Cycle Shaft is, but where the number on the map seems to point to, it can't be there as that is more the Christmas mine location.
→ Where the ID 236 seems to fit, and I had put the Christmas mine, that is more one of the shafts on the Vindicator Mine operations, so far only marked as a Vindicator No. 1 shaft as I have some lacks in the way I have things set up so I can't fix this easily, hopefully in a few years time I have a better setup.
26.02.2023

Yeah, second day I've managed to scan a postcard, yes! Today's addition to my Postcards Album page is a view of Battle Mountain Mines, taken from below the Stratton's Independence mine sometime before September 1919, looking towards Portland No. 2 mine. I got it of a seller on eBay in December 2021.
14.02.2023
I've managed to scan a postcard again, finally! Today's addition to my Postcards Album page is a view of a Bennett Avenue Snow Scene in December 1913. I got it of a seller on eBay in September 2021, so not the fastest scan I've done.

→ The Main Working Shaft of the Blue Flag Mine on Raven Hill.
→ A most likely Working Shaft on the Brigadier lode claim on Raven Hill.
→ Fixed the name from the USGS 1903 topo-map for ID 193, as from all I can gather of info, this is the Discovery Shaft of the Blue Flag lode claim on Raven Hill, and not the Brigadier which the map had in its register; as those operations are further southwest!
→ Marked a most likely shaft on the Brigadier lode claim on Raven Hill.
→ Marked a secondary most likely shaft on the Kentucky Belle lode claim on Raven Hill.
→ Likely location of the Discovery Shaft on the Concepcion lode claim on Raven Hill.
→ Moved the marking for ID 196 unto the likely Working Shaft of the Red Umbrella Mine on Raven Hill, could also be the structure just south of my marking, very hard to find a definite answer here.

Also added the most likely location of the Hummer Mine on Ironclad hill.
And, I found that the most likely location of the Discovery Shaft of the Hobo Lode on Guyot Hill was a neighbor structure from the one I had marked before, so I fixed that as well.
I've added in two shafts located on the Ajax lode {better known as Beacon Hill Ajax lode] on Beacon/Guyot Hills, both located on the slope of Guyot Hill.
11.01.2023
I added a article about the El Paso Mill, in Florence.
