This mining company has been commonly associated with Aurora, Nevada. Although that may sound more reasonable, research indicates this stock is from Alamo, Lower California. In September of 1901 the Salt Lake City Tribune had a short article on the Aurora Consolidated. It had secured control of 18 of the leading properties near Alamo. They supposedly had $200,000 in gold in the treasury. They intended to sink 1,000' shafts on the Aurora and Princess mines. Clifford Alpheus Shaw, on his definitive work on Aurora, Nevada clearly states that James Stuart Cain owned the mines of the Aurora area until he sold them in 1912 to Magnum, Knight and Knight in 1912. They changed the name to the Aurora Consolidated Mines Company. State: California City: Alamo, Lower California Date: 1905
