Calumet and Arizona Mining Company group of claims
A group of manganese claims located SE of the Briggs Mine.
Mineralization is a series of deposits in Naco Limestone which is dipping East. Ore occurs as a replacement of a single bed. Most of the deposits are closely associated with nearly N-S fissures. At 2 places where the most ore had been obtained, these N-S fissures are crossed by some nearly E-W fissures, and the fracturing of the limestone in the vicinity of this intersection evidently furnished the conditions favorable for the deposition of ore.
