A former Au-Ag mine located in the SWΒΌ sec. 2, T22N, R17E, WM. This mine was located in 1874 by John Shafer. It is on the N side of Culver Gulch and adjoins the US Mineral Monumental property on the E, the Alta Vista property on the N, and the Bobtail property on the W.

It worked ore lenses in a quartz/calcite vein in serpentine.

Developments include 14 adits aggregating more then 4,500' of length, and numerous raises and stopes.

It produced about $300,000 (period values) by 1902.
