36. Eligibility Recommendation (Cont'd):
Statement of Significance/N.R.H.P. Justification:
6LK50.5 - Railroad spur 5LIC50.5 is recommended as a contributing element(criterion a)of the Denver & Rio
Grande Railroad system,a National Register-eligible site,serving the mines of the Leadville area. The segment
retains fairly good visual integrity and is readily identifiable as a railroad grade. Because of the grade's visual
integrity, it is also considered to be a contributing element of the Leadville Mining District(5LI(856).
5LK50.6 - Railroad spur 5LIC50.6 is not recommended as a contributing element of the Denver & Rio Grande
Railroad system, a National Register-ftible site, serving the mines of the Leadville area. The segment has
been altered through upgrading and is not readily identifiable as a railroad grade. For the same reason, it is not
considered to be a contributing element of the Leadville Mining District(5LIC856).
5LK50.7 - Railroad spur 5LK50.7 is not recommended as a contributing element of the Denver & Rio Grande
Railroad system, a National Register-eligible site, serving the mines of the Leadville area. The segment is not
easily recognizable as a railroad grade and has been partly obliterated by road construction; it no longer reaches
the tipple at the New Monarch Mine. For the same reason, it is not considered to be a contributing element of
the Leadville Mining District(5LK856).
5LK50.8 - Railroad spur 5LIC50.8 is recommended as a contributing element(criterion a) of the Denver & Rio
Grande Railroad system, a National Register-eligible site,serving the mines of the Leadville area. Although the
grade has been slightly upgraded and is used as a dirt road, it still retains visual integrity as a railroad grade
over much of its length. Because of the grade's visual integrity, it is also considered to be a contributing
element of the Leadville Mining District(50(856).
5LK50.9 - Railroad spur 5LK50.9 is recommended as a contributing element(criterion a)of the Denver& Rio
Grande Railroad system,a National Register-eligible site,serving the mines of the Leadville area. The segment
retains excellent visual integrity and is readily identifiable as a railroad grade. The grade was built specifically
to serve the Fortune Mine (5LK928),an important producer of ore in the Little Ellen Hill area. Because of the
grades visual integrity, it is also considered to be a contributing element of the Leadville Mining District
(5LK856).
