Pub. Resources Code, § 3917

Whenever a coowner or coowners of a mining claim give to a delinquent coowner or coowners the notice in writing or notice by publication provided for in Section 2324 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, an affidavit of the person giving the notice, stating the time, place, manner of service, and by whom and upon whom service was made, shall be attached to a true copy of the notice.

The notice and affidavit shall be recorded in the office of the county recorder, in books kept for that purpose, in the county in which the claim is situated, within 90 days, after the giving of the notice. For recording the notice and affidavit, the recorder shall receive the same fees as are allowed by law for recording deeds.
