Zeile Mine

 

 

Location is on the south side of Jackson. The Zeile produced over $5,000,000 in gold. It was first worked in the 1860's and by 1867, there was a 16 stamp mill crushing the ore and a chlorination plant trating the concentrates. The mine closed in 1875 but reopened again in 1880 and operated continuously until 1914.
