Halero Mine
A former large output surface and underground Cu-Ag-Au-Pb-Zn-Gemstone mine located in the SWΒΌ sec. 9, T23S, R24E, G&SRM, approximately 1Β½ miles NW of Lowell. All major shafts are found in the SWΒΌSWΒΌ sec 9. Discovered 1877 as the original copper mine of the district. First produced in 1881. Owned and operated by the Phelps Dodge Corporation.
Mineralization is high-grade copper carbonates with minor lead and zinc carbonates in irregular replacement orebodies, mainly in Devonian Martin Limestone along a structural trough. Also hosted by Escabrosa Limestone and Naco Limestone. Ore control was nearby dikes and sills; and faulting and associated brecciation. Ore concentration was bornite replacing pyrite. Alteration was gossan with Mn and Fe oxides induced by hydrothermal metamorphism. Malachite from this site is suitable for cutting and polishing into gem material.
Local geologic structures include pre-mineralization faulting and tilting. Main fault directions are N10W to N40E and S30W to N50W.
Workings include surface and underground openings comprised of shafts and open pit operations. A maze of workings connecting with the surface through four working shafts and several other less-used openings. The area is thoroughly intersected by drifts and crosscuts and covers nearly half a square mile, while the extreme vertical range is about 950 feet (ca. 290 m). The shaft names are the Czar, Queen inclined, Holbrook, Spray, Gardner, and Hayes. This was the original copper mine of the district.
Production was several thousand tons of ore in the early years. It averaged production of 3,000,000 pounds (ca. 1,361 ton) of Cu per year. Mine dump leaching performed in 1989. A small leach producer of precipitated Cu in 1991.
