Deposit: The poorman group is comprised of the nome, poorman, green horn, king fisher, and midnight placer claims. Van duzer and lime creek were first mined with hydraulic giants (small scale) and 40-50 years later, during WW II, it was dredged by morrison-knudsen co. The point of reference for this property is placed at the junction of lime and van duzer creeks, within the confines of the patented claim group.
