A group of former small surface W-Cu-Ag-Fluorspar mines with surface workings located in sec. 12 and the N½ sec. 13, T.16S., R.22E. (Dragoon 7.5 minute topo map), approximately 4½ miles SE of Johnson, on private land.
Mineralization is spotty scheelite with some hübnerite, fluorite and copper oxides in quartz veins, limestone inclusions, and contact breccia in altered Laramide quartz monzonite (Texas Canyon stock).
Workings are surface workings. A small amount of tungsten ore was produced in the early 1900's and about 8 tons of Cu-Ag ore in 1949.
