Note:
The Melones Mining Company was incorporated in about 1895 under the laws of West Virginia. It was located near the town of
Robinson's Ferry, California, which was renamed Melones by the company in 1902. In circa 1919 the Melones Mining Company was
consolidated with a number of other mining concerns into Carson Hill Gold Mines, Inc., which operated until May of 1942. The
town of Melones is now submerged beneath the New Melones Reservoir.
