A former small underground Zn-Pb-Ag-Cu-Au mine located in East-central sec. 3, T24S, R16E (protracted), near the Annie Mine, W of Washington Gulch. Produced 1900-1951. Owned at times, or in part, by the Duquesne Mining & Reduction Co.; and the Queen Mining Co.
Mineralization is sulfides, partly oxidized near the surface, in a pyrometasomatic lens in Permian Naco Group limestone at the edge of a strong garnet zone.
Workings include shaft operations. Worked sporadically from the earl 1900's through 1951. Total production would be a few hundred tons of ore averaging about 10% Pb, 5% Zn, 4% Cu, 4 oz. Ag/T, and minor Au.
