A Ag-Au-Pb-Cu-Zn mine located about 1,000 feet SSW of the Arizona National Mine. Owned by Raible & Mischeles of Prescott, AZ (1926). Reopened 1948-1949. Overall produced 1907-1979.
Mineralization is a vein that strikes N.40ºE. & dips 80ºW. hosted in the Lower Unit of the Spud Mountain Volcanics and can be traced 1,500 feet toward the McCabe-Gladstone Mine. The ore body is tabular. The ore is a complex deposit of sulfide minerals, chiefly galena, sphalerite, pyrite, and chalcopyrite, and also contains a little gold and some silver. Ore control was faulting and shearing. Ore concentration was oxidation and enrichment at near surface. No alteration was noted.
Area structures include veins parallel to the foliation in Precambrian rocks, which trends N25E.
Workings include a 200 foot deep shaft.
