A former small underground Cu-Pb-Au-Ag-Silica mine group located in secs. 25 & 36 area, T.22S., R23E. (Bisbee 7.5 minute topo map), approximately 2½ miles NW of Bisbee, on private land. Operated by the Juniper-Flats Gold Mining Co.
Mineralization is spotty and generally weak, oxidized and siliceous copper, lead, gold, and silver ores in irregular quartz veins in Jurassic granite.
Workings are shallow. Some 600 tons of ore were produced, mainly as smelter flux, by the group in 1914-1918, 1926, 1938, and 1941.
