A former surface and underground Mn-Pb-Cu-Baryte-Fluorite mine and group of claims located 9 miles NW of Aguila, near the county line and near the base of a small outlying hill of the Harcuvar Mountains, at 2,500 feet of altitude. Worked August, 1917 to April, 1918.
Mineralization is a lenticular ore body. Best ore was obtained near the surface.
The hill is composed of red sandstone that strikes NW & dips about 30ΒΊSW. The deposit occurs in a well-defined fault fissure that strikes N.60ΒΊW. and is generally vertical. The largest orebody exposed is 50 feet long and 3 feet wide. The ore, for the most part, is composed of soft, amorphous manganese oxides inclosing small bunches of short prismatic manganite crystals. Small cavities in the ore are lined with minute filaments of a soft black, lustrous manganese oxide that may also be manganite. The ore is apparently a decomposition product of black calcite with its contained manganese oxides. In parts of the vein black calcite and barite show banded structure. Barite predominates in the vein near the bottom of the shaft. A few stains of copper salts were noted in the vein material.
Workings include a number of open cuts and a 40 foot deep shaft with short drifts at the 20 foot level. Produced about 600 tons of ore.
