4. There are a number of quicksilver mines in Lake and 

 Napa counties, which can be reached by livery team 

 from Calistoga or Middletown. 



VI. Eandsburg-Johannesburg Mines and Searles 

 Lake: 



Headquarters at St. Charles Hotel, Johannesburg. From this 

 point the following may be reached by stage or auto- 

 mobile: 



1. Yellow Aster Gold Mine at Randsburg. 



2. Tungsten Mines at Atolia. 



3. Searles Lake, Trona, where the American Trona Com-

Trona. 



There are a number of other isolated mines 

 which probably would not be of particular interest 

 to the average visitor; for instance, the American 

 Girl Mine near Ogilby, California, twelve miles west 

 of Yuma; the mines of the Julian district, about 

 sixty miles east of San Diego, reached most con- 

 veniently by automobile; the Dairy Farm Mine, 

 reached by automobile or livery team from Lincoln, 

 California; the mines near the line of the Western 

 Pacific through Plumas County; etc.
