Scarce promotional report for a prospective mining operation near Santiago Papasquiaro in Durango, Mexico, at the end of the 19th century. The report was made by W.S. Morrow to the company headquarters in El Paso, and describes his journey to the site, testifies to the abundance of high quality ore at the claims, and gives a favorable view of the accessibility of building materials, power, and labor. We locate one copy of the present work, at SMU.
