Please tell me if you know the year, make and manufacturer of this.

Ball Mill located in Creede, Colorado USA.

This Ball Mill was driven by a Steam Engine (missing). Do you know what Steam Engine would have been used to drive this Ball Mill?
Many thanks

Hi,

no idea as to make or year of this antique. Best I could do is if you gave me the mill's dimensions, I could tell you the Horse Power needed to run it. In any case, where would you get a steam engine these days?
