pending further labor or money in its development and exploration.
A lode discovery must be a discovery of mineral bearing rock
in place as distinguished from mineralized float or slide.

should be placed at each corner and angle of the location. These
posts should be numbered consecutively from the Number One post

ALMER RYDEEN, Register
Where timber is not available for posts the comers and angles
should be marked by piles of stone with the same markings.
Boundary lines between posts should be clearly marked on the
surface of the ground so that they may be easily traced. Boundary
lines between posts are presumed to be straight lines even though
the surface markings between posts may vary somewhat from a
straight line which is always the shortest distance between two
posts.
MARKING BOUNDARIES (LODE CLAIMS):
The initial post with location notice thereon must be placed
at or near the place of discovery. End stakes should be placed
in the middle of the vein and at the four corners of the claim.
Your three stakes should be in line, end lines should be parallel to
each other, and should be, as nearly as possible, at righc angles
to the course of the vein. You are allowed to locate 1500 feet
along the course of the vein and 300 feet on each side of the center
line thereof. Boundaries should be clearly marked as in placer
locations.
RECORDING.
All placer and lode claims should be recorded in the office of
the recorder of the mining district wherein such locations are made
