Trinity Canyon

This first gallery is of Trinity Canyon, a known placer district.  A total of 80 acres up and down this canyon are available to claim.  A few tailings piles are scattered throughout.  

The two mines shown in the photos are the Morning Star & Lower Steiner mines.  The MRDS write up on these mines has them as past gold/silver producers, and they are one of the many lode mines at the head of Trinity Canyon.  Information on the high production of placer gold in this district can be found in "Placer Districts of Nevada" book published by USGS 1971. Claims are approx. 7 miles Northwest out of Lovelock, NV.
