By Professional Geologist R.W. Wittkopp. A first-hand account of the early development of the Dee Gold Mine and the expansion of the Carlin Trend. "During the summer of 1981, we sat on the top of a mountain at the north end of the then known Carlin Trend, logging drill cuttings and constructing cross sections. We knew the trend was going to get bigger....We just didn't know HOW big." This story is told at the suggestion of the late John Livermore. Full color with color photographs inside
