A former small underground Cu-Ag-Au-Mo-Pb-Zn mine located in the center sec. 24, T18S, R7E, on the ridge NE of Fresnal Canyon Spring.
Mineralization is fracture filling in a fault zone hosted in the Pitoikam Formationm (metasedimentary rocks). Ore control was quartz-calcite veins in a strong fault zone. Alteration was oxidation to shallow depths along the fault zone.
Workings were comprised of shallow tunnels and shafts, about 200 feet of underground workings.
