Property included 7 patented and 17 unpatented claims. This may be the same as other properties in database.

The deposit is comprised of a quartz vein cutting serpentine.

Developments include a 1,300' adit, a shorter adit, and several winzes and raises.

It produced about 3,000 tons of ore in about 1900, and $4,000 (period values) in 1940.
