Development: Claim staking, reportedly some drilling.

Geology: The examiner saw no apparent reason for claim at northwest corner of mud lake. Later, personal communication with charles g.(gary) clifton, formerly with fisher-watt, indicated that gold values were found on the playa. Drilling showed no significant Au valves, but there was some problem with sample contamination and clifton thinks the property has possibilities.
