A silver mine NW of Chewelah above Dunn Creek. The geology is veins cutting trachyte in the Cretaceous-Tertiary granitic rocks of the Huckleberry Range. Development consisted of two shafts, one of which was a 300' incline with 340' of drifts. It produced ore in 1890 and 1935. Mills (1977) reported a production of around 2,500 lbs Pb and 175 oz Ag
