A former underground Cu-Au-Ag-silica mine located in the N½ sec. 11, T.8N., R.10W. (Smith Peak 7.5 minute topo map). Discovered in 1885 by J.C. Bullard. Produced 1935-1956. Claims also in secs. 1-3, 10 & 12.
Mineralization is a vein deposit with a tabular ore body. Ore control was faulting and shearing. Ore concentration was oxidation at near surface. Alteration was minor.
Area structures include veins parallel to faults which cut volcanics at an angle. The Tertiary volcanics strike N70W and dip steeply SW.
