There's gold in them there hills. Or, at least there used to be. Explorers recently found a way into the now abandoned Union gold and silver mine to see what remains hundreds of feet under the Earth.
A gold and copper mine sits near Cheyenne out to our west adjacent to Curt Gowdy State Park and there are plans in motion for a project that could potentially produce millions of dollars in revenue as well as bring lots of jobs to the state of Wyoming. The southeast region of Wyoming is literally sitting on a gold mine.
