A former surface and underground Pb-Au-Ag mine. Orebody is lens-shaped.
Mineralization is a vein deposit. Two assays suggest the prospect is significantly enriched in Pb and Ag but not anomalously enriched in Au and Zn.
This Mine is located on the "BEL1" Mining claim as a Hard Rock Claim Filed and Registered with The Bureau of Land Management, and Maricopa County.
