[Ghost Town] Photos of Placer Gold Mining Outfit on Granite Creek, BC

Unknown Photographer

n.p. Loose Photographs. Three sepia toned snapshot photos (2.5 x 4.5 inches) of a group of men placer mining for gold on Granite Creek, near the now Ghost Town of Granite City, in the Similkameen region near Coalmont, B.C. The photos are ID'd on their versos w. the men's names and the equipment being worked on their "Granite Creek" claim. We note that the wooden flume appears to be the same flume we have seen in other Granite Creek photos online. Note that the blue looking light at bottom edges is from the scanner and not on the photos. Good or Better. Item #5543

An intimate look at a busy, working placer mine.
