The discovery of the Lost Burro Mine involves the classic tale of a prospector in 1907 picking up a rock to throw at his stray burros, only to discover it laced with gold.

In 1915 the Montana-Tonapah Company built a water powered 5-stamp mill, with water piped in from Burro Spring 8 miles away. The Lost Burro changed hands many times over the years, the most productive years were between 1912-1917.
