The Unity Tunnel (sometimes listed as the Unity Mine) is located approximately 2.0 miles south of the Kelly Mine. Very little is known of the Unity. No information on this mine is found in the historic records of the Magdalena Mining District, and what scant information there is comes from the Socorro County Historical Society. However, they place the location at the portal for the drainage tunnel of the Cavern Tunnel (Mine), which is incorrect. As with most mines of the Magdalena District, it appears the major commodities were copper, lead, and zinc. Further research into this area is being conducted.
