Report: Quote from Crowley, F.A., 1963, MBMG Bulletin 34, p. 50 .... "In the 1930's the unpatented claims were relocated by H.O. Brende of Clark Fork, Idaho, and additional development work was done." This was the only published reference to Brende so it was assumed that the Brende and Copper Ridge properties were the same.
