question: Poeville, Nevada is a historical mining town, known for a silver ore located under Mount Davidson, named what?
answer: Comstock Lode
context: Title: Poeville, Nevada
  Passage: Poeville, also known as Peavine until 1863, is the site of a historical mining town, established in 1864.  John Poe, a professional promoter from Michigan allegedly related to Edgar Allan Poe, discovered rich gold and silver veins in 1862 on the slopes of Peavine Mountain.  After the discovery of ore, Poe announced that the veins comprised the next Comstock Lode; he presented extracted ore at the state fair of 1864 as rich in content.  As a result, the former mining camp, called Poe City (Poeville) or Podunk (Poedunk), grew to 200 people by 1864.  Ore production in the mining district and population peaked around 1873-1874 with several hundred people living in town, supported by three hotels and a post office.  The post office, named "Poeville", operated between September 1, 1874, and March 24, 1878.
  Title: Berggeschrey
  Passage: Berggeschrey or Berggeschrei ("mining clamour") was a German term for the rapid spread of news on the discovery of rich ore deposits that led to the rapid establishment of a mining region, as in the silver rush in the early days of silver ore mining in the Ore Mountains.  It is similar in some respects to the gold rush in North America.
  Title: Ott's Assay Office
  Passage: Ott's Assay Office is a historic assay office located at 130 Main Street in Nevada City, California.  The building was constructed in 1851 as a drug store; James J. Ott opened his assay office in the back of the store in 1857.  In 1859, Ott assayed a sample of silver ore discovered in the Washoe Country; this ore marked the discovery of the Comstock Lode, and the resulting silver rush eventually led to Nevada's statehood and several advancements in mining technology.  The silver rush also gave Ott a reputation as a quality assayer; he ran his office until his death in 1907, and his son continued the business until 1955.
  Title: Bukit Besi
  Passage: Bukit Besi is a small mining town in Dungun constituency, Terengganu, Malaysia famous for its high quality iron ore.  The ferum content of Bukit Besi's iron ore is more than 70% hence making it a very high grade sought after iron ore and is Malaysia's best known grade of iron ore.  The iron ore reserve was discovered by the British during the colonial era.  More than 90% of Bukit Besi's iron ore reserves have already been mined by colonial powers Britain and Japan in the 1900s.  It is estimated that roughly 50 million metric tonnes of iron ore deposits remain as of today.  Recent events have seen the Terengganu state government awarding iron ore mining concessions to China-based companies such as Eastern Steel and Shougang Steel whom together with their local Malaysian partners will mine the remaining iron ore reserves in Bukit Besi over the span of 25 years hence providing a new lease of economic opportunities for locals in the area.
  Title: Lulu City, Colorado
  Passage: Lulu City was a transient mining town in eastern Grand County, Colorado, in the Kawuneeche Valley in what is now Rocky Mountain National Park.  The town appeared after silver was discovered in the area in 1879 by prospector Joe Shipler, and was built primarily by the Middle Park and Grand River Land Improvement Company in 1880.  The company was backed by Benjamin F. Burnett of Fort Collins and Fort Collins rancher William Baker.  The town was named after Burnett's daughter.  By 1881 there were forty cabins and a number of business establishments.  By this time it was apparent that the silver ore was of low grade, and that high transportation costs made mining in the area marginal, and the town began its decline.  It was abandoned by 1885, except by Shipler, who lived there for thirty years.
  Title: Silver King Camp
  Passage: Silver King Camp is a ghost town located in the West Kootenay region of British Columbia.  The town is located on Toad Mountain near Nelson and was founded in the 1880s.  In 1887 silver ore was discovered on Toad Mountain, and a mine was created called the Silver King which was owned by the Hall family of Nelson.  A town grew around the workings of the mine.  By 1898 Silver King Camp had a population of 190.  The Silver King mine was the greatest shipper of silver ore to the Nelson Smelter for two decades.  A forest fire destroyed Silver King Camp and today little remains of the town.
  Title: Silver City, Utah
  Passage: Silver City is a ghost town located at the mouth of Dragon Canyon on the west flank of the East Tintic Mountains in northeast Juab County in central Utah, United States.  It was a silver mining town approximately 90 mi south-southwest of Salt Lake City, Utah.  This area was considered part of the Tintic Mining District and also produced bismuth, copper, gold, and lead.  Settlement began with the first mining strikes here in 1869.  Silver City was inhabited until 1930 after the mines ran out.  Jesse Knight, known as the "Mormon Wizard" for his ability to find ore easily, decided to build a smelter in Silver City because it had the flattest ground in all of the Tintic Mining District.  Silver City had several mines in 1890, but the mines hit water and were abandoned.  Now there is nothing left other than a few holes where mines were, and a number of tailings piles.
  Title: Comstock Lode
  Passage: The Comstock Lode is a lode of silver ore located under the eastern slope of Mount Davidson, a peak in the Virginia Range in Nevada (then western Utah Territory).  It was the first major discovery of silver ore in the United States.
  Title: Logan, Nevada
  Passage: Logan, Nevada, is a ghost town located in the hills about 9.5 mi west of Hiko and 2.5 mi south of Mount Irish Peak.  Logan had its brief existence as a mining camp when silver ore was discovered in 1865 in the Mount Irish Range just to the north in Silver Canyon on the east flank of Mount Irish.
  Title: Comet (steamboat)
  Passage: SS "Comet" was a steamship that operated on the Great Lakes.  "Comet" was built in 1857 as a wooden-hulled propeller-driven cargo vessel that was soon adapted to carry passengers.  She suffered a series of maritime accidents prior to her final sinking in 1875 causing the loss of ten lives.  She became known as the only treasure ship of Lake Superior because she carried 70 tons of Montana silver ore when she sank.  The first attempts to salvage her cargo in 1876 and 1938 were unsuccessful.  "Comet" was finally salvaged in the 1980s when the Great Lakes Shipwreck Historical Society illegally removed artifacts from the wreck.  The artifacts are now the property of the State of Michigan and are on display as a loan to the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum.  The fate of her silver ore cargo is unknown.  "Comet"' s wreck is now protected by the Whitefish Point Underwater Preserve as part of an underwater museum.
