Not much info is out there on this mine other than production data from the late 1800’s, early 1900’s and a few pictures. The mine’s claim to fame is its working ore cart. It looks old and rusty but it still rolls, pivots, and dumps.

The mine does not even show up on USGS Historic Topo so the map pin is my best guess. It’s located somewhere in the steep hills above the beaver pond at Lundy Canyon. The Yellow Rose Mine and the Erie Mine are supposedly nearby.

I’m not sure where this photo came from or who is in it, but it is all over the web. If you know please comment below!
