Silver Peak Mine; Sunny Peak Mine; Chief Sunshine Mine; Sunshine Chief Mine
A silver mine near the summit of Mineral Hill above Conconully. It was developed by two adits and produced sporadically until 1954.
Note: There is some confusion on the location of this mine as Moen (1973) lists it as being in the SE 1/4 of section 31 and on Mineral Hill. This area is not on mineral hill, and he likely has it mistaken for section 35.
