A former small surface Cu-Ag-Au-Mn mine located in North-central sec. 23, T.20S., R.22E. (Tombstone 7.5 minute topo map), about 1½ miles SW of Tombstone, on private land. Operated by Holt and Brown (1941).
Mineralization is oxidized copper-silver ores in spotty replacement bodies along fracture zones in Paleozoic limestone. Mineralization occurred in the manganese-silver phase, after the iron-lead-zinc phase in the rest of the district.
Workings include surface openings. Some 60 tons of ore were produced in 1941-1942.
