Synopsis

This book details the findings of the US Army Corps of Engineers from their 1871 exploration of the Sutro Tunnel in Nevada. Under the direction of Lt. Gen. H.G. Wright, the engineers examined the tunnel to determine its viability, feasibility and potential impact on mining in the area. The Commission's report evaluates the potential of the tunnel to improve ventilation and drainage and to reduce transportation and milling costs. It also assesses the geological and practical value of the tunnel as an exploratory work and its potential to impact deep mining. The findings of this book provide valuable historical insights into the early development of mining in Nevada and the role that infrastructure played in its expansion.
