Is Cliff Mine haunted?
The record holds 1 claim — filed as reported, not verified. The heaviest filing is classed anecdotal. The archive documents the claim; it takes no position on the ghost.
The record — long form
Cliff is the first — the 'dividend paid' that's the mine's rank, the '97 percent' that's the copper's pure. The '49ers learned' is the schooled — the 'California' that's the pupils' next, the 'Keweenaw' that's the classroom's spot. The 'cliff capped' is the stopped — the 'couldn't expand' that's the geography's limit, the '120 buildings' that's the ruins' count.
The 'mined before' is the older — the 'indigenous' that's the first miners' kind, the 'billion years' that's the lava's age. The 'town grew' is the followed — the 'Clifton' that's the settlement's name, the 'Cornish Irish' that's the workers' mix. Cliff is the forested — the 'trees hide' that's the ruins' state, the 'foundations' that's the left's form.
The file keeps Cliff: the first dividend, the schooled 49ers, the capped cliff, and the older miners.
Cliff Mine is the archive's Michigan file — the first profitable copper mine in Copper Country.
Why this file matters

A mine keeps its cliff — the file's suggestion being that Cliff's hold is the first: the 'dividend' that's the profit's mark, the '97%' that's the copper's pure, and the '49ers' that's the students' fame.
