UPDATED CLAIMS MAP IS HERE. Over 228,000 acres of the Black Hills are under mining claims – or more than 18% of all the land in the Black Hills.
In the last several months, new mining projects have been announced – or discovered by local people – in the Black Hills. They join other projects that we already knew about.
