Editor's Notes: Miner told his about rich platinum deposit in Montana. Wants information on Pt before going to see it. Marg: "Dont believe there is a gram of platinum east of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. If you come across a big deposit of pure black sand containing flour or rusty(?) gold I can work it to a charm."
