Ed Raines, Collections Manager at the CSM Geology Museum, presents an in-depth look at the most significant Mining Districts of Colorado with talks focusing on History & Geology.

The Parade of People -- One way to evaluate the value of a particular region to the country is to examine the people and their accomplishments that highlight the community. At Leadville there are a lot of highlights from Horace Tabor and David Moffat to Molly Brown and Soapy Smith. The glare of their highlights sometimes nearly blinds the eye.
