A group of 3 mines around Cerbat. The geographic coordinates presented are arbitrary to a point in the approximate center of the group.
VANDERBILT GROUP.
General description. The Vanderbilt group comprises the Vanderbilt, Idaho, and Columbus mines, situated near together in the foothills at Cerbat, just north of the Golden Gem mine. The group is owned by the Cerbat Mining Company, with headquarters at St. Louis. At the time of visit the company was installing a 25-ton mill to treat the low-grade ore from the upper part of the mines by calcination and amalgamation of the concentrates, there being a large amount of low-grade ore, especially in the Vanderbilt. The ore from the lower levels, owing to its richness, is shipped direct to the smelter.
