Two county and state tax receipts issued to The Mountaineer Gold Mine Company at Saw Pit in Plumas County.
This is an extensive gold-bearing region in southern Plumas County. It is contiguous with the Quincy district to the north and the Gibsonville district in Sierra County to the south. It includes the Last Chance, Sawmill Flat, Monitor Flat, Onion Valley, Harrison Flat, Blue Nose Mountain, and Nelson Point areas. The district was named in 1850 for a pit that was dug for the use of a whipsaw. The region was extensively mined during the early days and has been intermittently prospected since.
