This is a structure located toward the outer edge of the Montosa-Caliente belt of Paleozoic sediments. It is a monoclinal north-south foothill hogback ridge capped by limestone dipping 40º-60ºW. into the Santa cruz Valley. The ridge extends from a point near Agua Caliente to Montosa Basin, being about a mile long, and is separated from the slope of the main ridge by a narrow piedmont valley. The name is derived from the mineral deposits found in it at various points.
