A former underground Pb-Cu-Ag-Zn-Au-Baryte-Emery mine located in the NE¼ sec. 8, T.21S., R.15E, on National Forest land. First produced 1911. Owned at times, or in part, by Powers; Jonston; Elliott; Altamirano & Goodsell; and, Lenon & Wilson.
Mineralization is a series of parallel fissure veins of massive quartz containing abundant pyrite, bladed masses of barite, and shoots and stringers of sulfides cutting Triassic monzonite intruded by Jurassic aplite. Oxidized and enriched near the surface.
Workings include tunnel operations. Worked intermittently from 1911 through 1953. It produced some 310 tons of ore averaging about 17% Pb, 7 oz. Ag/T, 0.5% Cu, and minor Au.
