A former underground Zn-Ag-Pb-U-Au-Cd-Cu-Fe mine located in the NE¼NE¼NW¼ sec. 6, T6S, R20E, in the bottom of Stowe Gulch above the confluence with Tule Canyon, on private land. Owned by Mr. Herb Hatter of Klondyke.
Mineralization is ore in pods and veinlets hosted in Horquilla Limestone, thin shale beds, Pinal Schist and metavolcanics. A lens of Pennsylvanian Horquilla Limestone is faulted against Precambrian Pinal Schist and is intruded by dikes of porphyritic silicic rock and by an irregular mass of andesite. The limestone is highly altered and fractured. Ore control was a fault between limestone and schist. Ore concentration was replacement and fissure filling. Alteration was tactite and jasperoid.
Area structures include Block faulting trending NNW. Regional trends: minor Pre-Cretaceous E- and NE-trending folds and major Post-Cretaceous NNW-trending faults.
Workings include a shallow winze and short adit. Production was combined with the Ben Hur (1952). Average assay is 7.7% Zn, 0.7% Pb, 0.8 oz/ton Ag, and 0.2% Cd.
