1) Yes, I know Mina was mostly known as a rail junction,
but there was a heck of a lot of mining around there
too, and I think the place definitely qualifies as a ghost
town or at least a semi-ghost.

2) Why is there no info on this site about Bullfrog other than
one picture? Bullfrog was also discovered by Shorty Harris and
named after a nugget that supposedly looked like a bullfrog. When
Rhyolite sprang up a few hundred yards away most people moved their
homes (usually miner's tents and shacks) to Rhyolite.
