The Ruby mine is a recently rehab Gold mine in Sierra County, California, USA, and they have published a very good text to explain the mine development and the current situation of the mine works.

So, if you like to have an overview of the mine, including many pictures, please use: https://www.northbayresources.com/ruby/

Enjoy it!

Greetings,

I was delighted to see the Ruby Gold Mine listed on your forum. I have personally been to the mine many times and can attest to the fact that it is a very exciting mining project.

Currently we are involved in rehab tasks, working around the wet and snowy weather events. As an old gold specimen dealer I am particularly excited about the prospect of Xtalized gold specimens coming from the mineralized quartz veins ( Melones fault zone) exposed in the main drift. Of course, I also don't sneer at the prospect of the gorgeous, butter yellow, placer gold nuggets that this mine is famous for.

There are a number of great old gold properties in our Northern Mines area that are struggling to life and it is with great anticipation that we miners look forward to this coming summer and a boom in gold mining.
