A former small underground Pb-Au-Ag mine located in the E½ sec. 35, T23S, R16E, 20 miles E of Nogales, on National Forest land.
Mineralization is a replacement deposit with an irregular ore body. Ore control was irregular replacement bodies along a contact between limestone and rhyolite. Ore concentration was metasomatic replacement and secondary enrichment following intrusion of volcanics. The host rock unit is the Scherrer formation.
Local structures include the Washington Camp fault block with mineral deposits in a limestone-sedment belt (2.5 miles long by 1.25 miles wide) surrounded by igneous rocks, which also form detached masses and dikes within the belt. The volcanic rocks include rhyolitic, alkali rhyolitic, and quartz latitic lava, tuff, and welded tuff.
Workings include an exploration prospect to a depth of 21.34 meters. The extent of development is unknown. No production figures but ore has been shipped.
