Highlights:

• 20-foot-wide ledge found with gold values between 0.028-0.05 opt.
• High grade values up to 5.94 opt gold found in smaller veins.
• Numerous gold bearing areas have been found; complex geology–should be further explored.
• 20-ft-wide vein system; 4-8 gm mining grades; recent 6 gm soil sample.

Highlights: 

• Sample results as high as 90 opt silver.
• Significant gold and silver discovered during drilling.
• Upper workings contain high copper and some silver values. Lower workings are more favorable for identified gold and silver resources.

Highlights: 

• Historic drilling program established a 12.4-foot-wide vein grading 3.4 opt silver with values said to increase with depth.
• A company in the 1980s “blocked out” 40,000 tons of 0.03 opt gold and 8 opt silver within 300 feet of the surface.
• Potential for bulk silver limestones.

aka Ledbetter Canyon Mine

Highlights:

• Potential for bulk style deposit.
• High grade gold values on dumps.
• Only crudely worked in the early 20th century with additional high-grade ore in veins likely.
• Additional potential low grade disseminated resources.
• Remote, should be evaluated further with modern exploration.

Highlights: 

• USGS’ 1980 estimate indicated a substantial Au resource at 0.15 opt.
• “Indicated and Inferred” resource of 120,000 tons averaging 0.10 opt gold.
• Gold occurs in quartz stockworks 6 feet wide over a strike length of at least 440 feet.
• Additional resources may occur in unexplored stockworks.
• Surrounded by high grade mines of the Sierra Buttes Mining District.

Highlights: 

• USGS’ 1980 estimate indicated 250,000 tons totaling 77,000 oz Au.
• “Indicated and Inferred” resource of 270,000 tons averaging 0.27 opt gold.
• Additional resources may occur in unexplored vein offshoots.
• Historically, ore graded as high as 2-3 opt.
