Santa Fe Gold Mining Co. Inquiry
Santa Fe Gold Mining Co.
5466. (Troy, N. Y.) Will you please give me some information about the following named company, and the value of its stock: 4,500 shares Santa Fe Gold Mining Co., dated Colorado Springs. April 4, 1895, H. S. Hawkes, president; T. C. Delaney, secretary; shares $1 each, incorporated under the laws of Colorado?
Ans.: According to Hill's Official Manual of the Cripple Creek district, this company owns about 20 acres of ground on Big Bull Hill, on which ground $4,000 has been expended in development, in the way of shafts and trenches.
Big Bull Hill has never yet produced a ton of pay ore. The price of the stock during 1899 was half a cent. Presumably it is still about the same.
