Silver King Well

and Mines, NV

Silver King Well is located in the foothills of the Schell Creek Range of eastern Nevada. I was unable to find any information about this site. However, it must date back to at least the early 1890s, because there is a grave at the site with death date of Nov. 2, 1893.


There are scant ruins of at least two stone cabins at Silver King Well, plus ruins of a small mill. The mill was most likely used to process ore from the Silver King Mines, roughly two miles to the northeast.



I visited the Silver King area in July 2024.
