A group of Au-Ag-Cu-Pb claims/mines.
Two separate groups of mines, the Mary Harrison and Malvina, were operated by the same company at one time. Together, these mines comprised many individual patented claims. The Malvina is on a subsidiary vein system west of and subparallel to the main Mother Lode vein system on which the Mary Harrison was developed. Because of this separation, it may be more appropriate to treat these groups as two distinct deposits geologically.
