Structure: E Trending Fault Breccia, Fissure Zones
Alteration: Kaolinized, Pyritized
Deposit: Development consists of vertical shaft with drifts. Silver-gold ore was discovered in 1906 near rosebud peak. However there was no shipment of ore until 1908, from the dreamland claim. From 1908 to 1947 the mines in the district yearly produced small amounts of gold and silver with some copper and lead.
