A former underground Cu-Au-Ag-Fe mine located in the SW¼ sec. 11, T7N, R13W (Salome 15 minute topo map). Exact location unknown. Owned at times, or in part, by Hatch; and James & Associates. Mr. Craig had unspecified involvement here.
Mineralization is spotty copper-gold ores in stringers and pockets, with strong hematite along shears and fractures in a major shear zone cutting Precambrian metamorphics intruded by dioritic and granitic dikes.
Workings include a shaft(s). Prospected and mined from the early 1900's to 1956, producing some 100 tons of ore averaging about 6% Cu, 1 oz. Au/T, and 0.2 oz. Ag/T.
