Gilpin County Has Tungsten Boo

Central City-The Tungsten boom
has invaded Black Hawk, Central
City and it's Immediate vicinity, and
everybody is talking and dreaming of
the black metal which has been found
in a number of places to the north
and west of these two cities. The
excitement is based upon facts, and
not mere hearsay, and judging from
the many samples of tungsten ore
that have been unearthed during the
last few weeks, Gilpin county may
soon be a rival of Boulder county in
the production of that metal.
