This mine is in section 3, township 24 N., 29 W., about 12 miles south of Peirce City, to which place the ore ls hauled and shipped. Lead has been found in this vicinity in the streams for many years. In January, 1891, Messrs. Allen, Lampkin & Hatchins put down a shaft about 20 feet deep. This penetrated the Lower Carboniferous limestone, and at the bottom heavy chert beds appeared. The ore consisted of blende and galena, which occurred in lenticular sheets along the stratification planes, extending into the joint planes, and also in disconnected masses. The galena occurred in masses 9 inches in diameter and less. The ore had not been followed by drifting at the time of the visit and was confined to the lower portion of the shaft.
The limestone is changed to dolomite in the vicinity of the ore, at times in beautiful crystals.
There had been about 2 tons of blende and 2 tons of galena taken out of this ground, at the date of examination; since then, up to 1893, Mr. Marriot of Pardy reports that 100 tons of lead and zinc ore have been produced.
