Se 1/4 of Section 6
A Cu,Au,Ag,Mo Mine located on Mineral Creek 2 miles above Little Kachess Lake that worked shear and joint planes in grandiorite. It produced 20tons of oree prior to 1920 that was shipped to the Asarco Smelter in Tacoma. Deveolpments include a 248' adit with a 50' winze and 3 other adits totaling several hundred feet.
