This mine was situated on the southeastern edge of the town, near the top of the hill, at the head of a small ravine running west; it is about on the northern edge of what are designated as the Hard Shaft diggings, on the small map of the camp. The shaft was 75 ft. deep. The first 55 ft. were principally in a mass of loose chert and clay, while the next 15 ft. were in solid, bedded chert. Under this the run of ore was struck, and, as developed, was about 5 ft. high, 25 ft. wide, and followed an east to west direction. The metalliferous minerals were found near the top and bottom of this run, separated by slabs and blocks of chert. Large amoants of tallow clay occur, associated with the ore. Blende, galena and calamine are found in close association. The paragenesis of these minerals is in the order of galena, blende and calamine. Dolomite is quite abundant, and the ore body is particularly characterized by the prevalence of calcite crystals, which are found in the clay pockets in large scalenohedra. Pyromorphite also occors in small quantities.
