A former underground Mo-Ag-Au-Pb-Fluorspar mine located in NW¼ sec. 32, T.8N., R.3W., near Red Picacho Peak near Wickenburg. Current status: Exploratory prospect. Claims extend into sec. 29, 30 and 31.
Also located close to the Purple Passion Mine but the mineralization is seemingly far less interesting/rich (per site visit by C. Lemanski, Jr., 2005).
Mineralization is a vein deposit.
