Sadly, not the best of quality on this, to me, rare view of the Lexington, or Clara D., mine on Gold Hill. In the background left I think we see part of the International [aka International Gold King] Mine, part of several different named operations on the Gold King lode, while the Lexington is on the Clara D. lode, which crosses the Gold King lode. I am not sure if the Water-tank seen about center in the background is linked to any specific mine or just a more common one. What I do know is that while the source of this image is in gray tones due to coming from a printed material, I did play around and tried to add some sort of coloring scheme using my computer as I think it is sort of enhances the image information.View of the Surface Improvements of the Lexington Mine.
