I was told a RUMOR from an ex-pat living south of San Flip that it's one of Carlos Slim's ventures. As to the rest, "Quien sabes? Quien Qieres?"

On some maps, the mines there have names: 'La Fortuna' and 'Buena Vista' (before being re-opened).

David is correct about the historical names
Now days Here is a read
Empresas Frisco, SA de CV, is a subsidiary of Grupo Carso SA de CV, which is owned by Carlos Slim.
http://www.minerafrisco.com.mx/ES/Nuestro_grupo/Paginas/Hist...
http://www.blueroadrunner.com/Epinions/goldmine.htm
It was reported in the financial publications that Slim made a profit of 89B USD as a result of the IPO for Frisco/Curoso. Made him the richest man in
the world for a time.

Wouldn't that be BINGO, with an accent mark on the I?

If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

The Spanish language version of bingo is Lotería. Played with images instead of numbers and letters.

Playing Lotería is a great way to learn, and practice, your Spanish. Especially while sitting poolside in Baja.

So right! I've always thought the characters were a little disturbing for a kids' game, though. Racial slurs, death, the drunk . . .
