Issued 1912 Osceola-Nevada Cons. Mining stock. "Osceola-Nevada Cons. Mining. "Osceola, Nevada, is a ghost town in the eastern part of the U.S. state of Nevada. The town was a placer camp devoted to mining gold. Gold was first discovered in 1872, followed by exploitation of the deposits using hydraulic mining techniques. Two ditches, the Osceola West Ditch & the Osceola East Ditch were built to convey water from the mountains for use in mining. Water production was less than hoped & hydraulic mining ceased in 1900, when the population had declined from 1500 at its peak to 100. A fire in the 1940s destroyed much of the town, but a few buildings & a cemetery remain." from wikipedia. Some upper wrinkles. [Osceola Nevada
