A former underground Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag-Au-Mo mine. Produced 1912-1967. Claims extend into the N½NW¼ of sec. 20 and the S½SW¼ of sec. 17.
Mineralization is a vein deposit with a tabular ore body. Ore control was faulting and igneous activity. Ore concentration was oxidation and enrichment at near surface. Alteration was minor.
Area structures include foliation in Proterozoic rocks that trends N10E to N20E. The vein and associated dike cross-cut foliation and trend N75E.
