Surveying the Comstock - The Continuing Saga<br />

We scratched the surface on “Surveying The Comstock” at our <strong>CLSA</strong>-<strong>NALS</strong> 2011 Annual Conference. Join us<br />

as we continue this surveying adventure (challenge). We will discuss the options considered for monumentation<br />

and recordation of disjointed mineral surveys (gaps and overlaps), overlapping patents/deeds, pincushion<br />

corners and difficult related corner decisions.<br />
