The MASMILS mine database shows 2 Uranium mines, one Iron/Copper mine, and quite a few Limestone/Gravel. One of the Uranium mines is the "H L Burtner Uranium Mine", which was owned by the "Silver Spring Mining Co". That mine is in the same general direction from Roaring River that Lockwood Cave is, but the two are not very close to each other.
