Mineralization is small, irregular lenses and pockets of oxidized argentiferous lead minerals, with some copper, along a fracture zone in Laramide volcanics cut by a granite porphyry dike.
Workings include shaft and open cut operations. Sporadic production occurred from 1916 through 1948 of some 70 tons of ore averaging about 24% Pb, 7 oz. Ag/T, and 2.5% Cu.
