A former surface and underground V-Mo-Pb-Ag-Cu-Au-Bi-Zn-W mine located in the NE¼ sec. 32, T3S, R15E, G&SRM, 10 miles NW of Christmas, ½ mile S of Dripping Springs Wash, on state land. Owned by E. E. Cutler and C. Bywater (1952).

Mineralization is a vein deposit with a linear ore body hosted in Mescal Limestone. Ore control was the contact of the limestone and diabase. The ore body strikes N60E and dips SE, while the contact strikes N35W and dips NE. Alteration was some silicification. The vein matter was well oxidized.

The paragenetic sequence is vanadinite, mimetite, descloizite, calcite. Vanadinite & wulfenite are present in soft material and as coatings on brecciated diabase for widths of a few feet. Cavities left by oxidized galena crystals also contain vanadinite.

Area geologic structures include N10-35W striking, E-dipping fracture zones.

3 channel samples averaged 0.33 ounce/ton Ag, 1.92% V, 6.2% Pb. One sample assayed 0.17% V and traces of Ag & Pb.

Workings included a 20 foot adit existing in 1925. During subsequent work a number of adits and one shaft several hundred feet deep were developed. A little ore was mined and some is reported to have been shipped during WWI.

A site visit during February, 2007, revealed a barren dump and numerous foundation structures from a large mill and other structures. Permission to access the site is required of a local rancher, whose land must be trespassed. Examination of the adit openings from the portals revealed seemingly very dangerous mine openings with unstable ceilings and unprotected vertical workings unsuited to entry by anyone other than an experienced miner with all appropriate equipment. NOTE: Accurate coordinates obtained January, 2007 (upper right adit).

Detailed Mineral List:

ⓘ Anglesite
Formula: PbSO4
ⓘ Brackebuschite ?
Formula: Pb2Mn3+(VO4)2(OH)
Description: "Brackebuschite" ID was by Raman spectroscopy. Subsequent analyses have failed to find manganese and probably all or most "brackebuschite" from here is really calderonite.
ⓘ Calcite
Formula: CaCO3
ⓘ Calderónite
Formula: Pb2Fe3+(VO4)2(OH)
Description: Based on Raman spectroscopy and XRD, this mineral was here previously thought to be "brackebuschite" - See comments in messageboard: http://www.mindat.org/forum.php?read,6,261345,261345#msg-261345
