ARlVIISrrICE :lVlINE

,The Armistice Mine consists of a group of eight unpa~

ented mining claims located in Hunter Canyon in the Huachuca

Mountains, Cochise County, Arizona. The mine is Fourteen miles

from Hereford, Arizona, the nearest shipping point.Hereford

is reached over 11 miles of graded road, 2 miles of paved ro~

and one mile of unimproved dirt road.

The mine is developed by two inclined shafts each

180 feet deep and numerous cuts and tunnels. We have shipping IJ

returns on 802 dry tons of are. rnThis are avera.ged 24.75% Lead, ~ f

7.83 oz. Silver per ton and 0.041 oz. Gold per ton.

Ore shoots are found in the s'edimentary rocks along

sills intruded about 40 feet from the large fault. Ore is alro

found around "the edges of the large porphyry intrusion.

Almost all ore mined came from the oxidized zone. The chief

lead minerals were Cerussite and Plumbojarosite. There is less

than 1.0% zinc in the oxidized ore. Where the sulfide ore was

cut it carries more zinc. One lens of ore mined from the bottmm

of the east shaft carried 10% lead and 20% zinc. IDhe sulfide

are from the 170 ft. level of the main shaft carries zinc

values also. These are the only two places where the sulfide

are has been cut. We did no development work in the sulfide

are because we were mining with hand steel and progress was

too slow"

Examined and sampled between ~anuary 5th and 12th, ~928, by L. T. Mc.l!:lvenny, E. M.

'l'he Lead-Bullion group of mining claims lies in the

Har.t:eord Mining District, hJuachuca Mountains, COG;b.ise

County, Arizona at 11 miles west of Hereford, a station

on the Southern Pacific Hailroad. Douglas, the smelting

center of the southwest, at which is the lead smelter of

the Phelps Dodge Corporation, is about 40 miles by rail

from Hereford.

The claims cover the north fork of Hunter uanyon

and reach, at their wester'extremity, the divide between

Hunter Canyon and Miller uanyon.

Elevation above sea level at the eastern end of the

group is 5200 feet, at the western end is 6000 feet, and

at the main shaft is 5700 feet.

Good county roads connect the mine with Hereford, the

-shipping pOint, excepting the first one and one-half miles

below the mine. If he mad is all doWn grade from the mine

to Hereford e An erpenditure of $200.00 will make a good

road throughout.

A fresh water spring on the Spring claim provides

enough water for domestic and ordinary mining purposes.

LEAD-BULLION - 2

l l he property consists of 9 unpatented mining claims with a ,.

maximum center line length of 5800 feet and a maximum cross-

width of 1800 feet. The average center line course is N. 55°

sr1he claims cover both the bottom. and sides of the

canyon, the general course of the canyon being east and west.

The property is well covered with a growth of small oak

and pinyon trees which are serviceable as small mine timbers

and stulls.

(;EN.Iilli~ G],'OLOGY.

The center line of the claims is a fault contact between

granit.e and limestone, and granite and a fine grained quartz

porphyry.

~he fault is reverse - an upthrust of the granite -

on a plane dipping about 650 to the northeast.

To the northeast of .the fault plane lies the granite

and to the southwest lie the limestone and quartz porphyry.

Some of the limestone beds are 10 and 12 feet thick but the

average thiokness is one foot. Bhaly and sandy beds are

interspersed throughout. ~he average strike of the beds is N

35° Wand the average dip is 400 northeasterly towards the

granite contact. The limestones are of Devonian and Carboniferous

age.

Irhe Porphyry is an intrusi va into the limestones and. is

faulted against the granite. It dips northeasterly at about

a 45° angle.

Small andesitic dikes cut the limestones ~ granite but

do not cut the porphyry. l~lhey show almost contin-

.' .. ~. . ~\ .

L~-BU~LION - 3

uously along the granite-limestone contact and are older than the

are.

The granite is a batholith accounting for the elevation of

the whole of the Huachuca Mountains.

iVllNHilV.

A shaft haS'been sunk at about the center of the Bullion

Ulaim, an inclined distance of 182 feet or a vertical distance of' 134

feet below the collar • 'fhe inclined angle is 450 to the northeast.

The shaft is in good repair. Water level rests at 114 feet vertically

below the collar.

The footwall is limestone and the hanging wall is a green

andesitic dike.

From thC? shaft, work has been done on the 50 foot, 100 foot,

140 foot and 180 foot levels, for the details of which see the attached

map.

Ifhe shaft followed down on an 8 inch str8ak of lead corbonate

ore which widened at the 100 foot level to over 24 inches. At this

point about 20 tons of ore were taken out and the shoot passed into the

footwall 01'· the shaft at a dip angle of' 65°. It was again picked up

on the 140 foot level in the crosscut back under the shei't where it

is 21 inohes wide with iron and lead sulphides along side of it.

ORB;S

tfhe or'e 1"8, as encountered so f'ar, lead in the form. of

carbonate and sulphide together with gold and silver. No zinc nor

manganese has been found. Iron Oxide accompaiies the ores down to a

depth of 104 feet below the s~face at which point pyrite begins to

come in.

:,.'

LEAl) - BULLION - 4

The ore oocurs in ~hoots along the strike of the limestone

beds with dips grading from the 450 dip of the limestones to a dip

of 650 corresponCling to too granite contact.

These shoots have been found at the granite contact and at

pOints almost 100 feet fran the contact. N~~o-l'~:~,has been f'ound in

the granite.

A lim! ted amount of prospecting has opened shoots v8.rying from

8 inches to 4 feet in thickness of u~nown but rather short lengths.

One shoot opened'on the surface is 4 feet 2 inches wide and is un-

covered for 65 feet in length. One end of this ore is still under

the ground-soil overburden.

Surface gouging has uncovered ore values for a length of 1200

feet along the contact.

PORPHYHY

The p~~phyry in places is mineralized extensively with iron,

and, at several points on the limestone-porphyry contact are found

lead ore stringers of commercial grade in wide iron mineralized

zones.

The limestone-porphyry contact on the Lead Bullion property has

not been prospected and the showings above mentioned are exposed on

claims belonging to George Dunn adjoining the Lead Bullion.

The following samples were all taken from the ore zone

immediately southwest of and parallel to the granite-limestone contact:

From the various shallow pits northwest of the main shaft on the

Bullion C-1aim, none of which exceed 5 feet in depth, I took out samples

L~ - BULLION - 5

which averaged gold, 0.01 ozs., silver 3.4 ozs, and ·'lead 3.6%. These

samples were taken over widths ranging from 6 feet to 20 feet and at

f'ive places.

From the most westerly pit on the Bullion claim came chunks run-

ning gold 0.01 oz. gold, silver 4.6 OZS., and lead 14.8%-

Sorted ore in piles of four or five tons at pits 250 feet

northwest elf the main shaft assay as follows:

No.1 Gold 0.02 ozs. Silv-er 6.8 OZ8., Lead 9.Jfo

No.2" 0.05 ozs. Silver 7.2 OZS., Lead 18.1%

Chunks from a small hole at 125 feet southeast of the main shaft

runs gold O.Ql ozs.) silver 1.0 ozs., lead 12.7%.

At 350 fa .;;:t southeast of the shaft is an ore body from which the l

overburden has been stripped, permitting comprehensive sampling.

'l'his body is 65 feet long and is not fully uncovered on the end towards

the shaft.

]lour ~ample s cut across the sho~ing are given below.. They are

spaced 20. feet apart •. High. grade chunks were avoided. f:3am.ple #19 was

taken in a hole about 5 feet deeper than the floor of the pit. An

actual samplE? of this :pit including the high-g~ade would run at least

2-5% lead.

LEAD - BULLION - 7.

Sample #6 is the downward extension of the ore which was mined in t'he shaft

at" the 100 foat"~ l~vel and which seems to have an eastwardly rake.. The 21

inches of ore at this point is on the footwall wide of the mineralized break.

'rhe hanging wall is here flattening and is producing a wider m.ineralized zone,

including 24 inches pf leached material running 5% lead and a 12 inch streak

. of iron and lead sulphides of about the same lead values. The sulphide ore

shows only in the bottom of the crosscut. No attempt was made to cut this

ore on the 180 foot level, but some galena and :pyrite were picked up.. 'l'he

main ore streak would be back of and to the east of the shaft at this level.

'l'he v'art-ieal extent of the pay ore below the 100 foot level is 34

feet. The lateral extent is unknown. On the 100 foot level the streak was

followed westerly for about 30 feet, the are showing diminishing width ..

The 100 foot level crosscut, cutting through the altered shaly lime

beds and eventually reaching the gra¢ te, failed to ex-pose any further oommer-

cial ore but show a width of 55 feet of leached ma:terial containing much

iron oxide and some lean lead values throughout.

In May, 1926, the company shipped 38.3 dry tons of are to the

American S1llelting &. Refining Company at El Paso. This shipment netted !\p1ge31

per ton after freight dedu.ctions at the smelter. The smel-tier returns showed:

Gold 0.05 OZ .. , Silver $.9 ozs. lead 20.12%. All of this ore was mined from

the shaft.

The drift on the 50 foot level exposes a 10 inch streak of carbonate

ore assaying 19 .. 9% lead, 8 ounces silver and 0 •. 10 ounces gold. (See Sample tl8) ..

It lies in the hanging wall of a divergent fracture which has been encountered

also on the 100 foot level in open and caved. ground and where the hanging wall

streak also carries good values. This streak was n0t cut on the 140 foot

level, and has perhaps raked to the eastward above this level.

·.' . ,," . ~" .

. .

~ bULL10N ---8

The exploration work done in the shaft and levels there off shows

that the main ore streak is getting wider and more persistent with depth.

Xt appears tbat the 100 foot level is the top of an are shoot.

The extent of this ore shoot is not known but the fact that it was picked

up in the first fandum crosscut driven from the 140 f'oot level shows that

it must be of greater extent laterally t.han on the 100 foot leve1.

I believe that this ore will persist eastwardly to connect with the

shoots shown by sampfues #12 to 20.

DEPJlH lU\fD EXTENT.

A cross section of the property shows that the limestone will reach

a minimum depth of 800 feet and will undoubtedly be cut by many tongues of the

mineralized porphyry which outcrops on the Dunn Claims.

This porphyry intrusion I believe to be a source of mineralization

for the whole area. 'Ilhis assumption cannot be sho.wn at the present time,

'but if it be true,. there is a possibiiity of greatly extending the ore zone

when these porphyry tongues are cut at depth.

The contact fault between the limestone and granite is of great

lateral extent, being traceable for several miles both northwesterly and

southeasterly, and at many.points along it lead ores are found, and at

several places the quartz porphyry is close to the fault and ore is found on

the porphyry-limestone contact.

also~ a drill steel, mine rails, pipe, and enough tools for 4 unaergottnd workers.

The water in the present shaft flows at about 15 ga.llons per minu.te.

TITLE:

The claims belong to Lon Kelly, L. J. Cox and '1'. o. McGrath, a part-

, nership.

They have surveyed and monumented the claims and location holes have

been dug to conform with the law, and assessment work has been. kept up.

However, a law suit has been brought against the owners by Max R.

VOIl Baumklrchner, claiming :prior location rights over a portion of the claims.

I have examined the case th.oroughly and can fin.d no grounds for his

contention and am positive that the case will be wen by the defendants.

FOR. SALE:.

Given a two year period for p~ents and a priviledge to stope

ore on a royalty basis to apply on purchase price, the property is worth from

'50; GOO to ,'iN)., 000.

It is of especial.appeal beoause of the faot that ore will be

encountered whic];i can be shipped direot to the smelter, 50 miles di,stant,

thus paying P8l"t of the cost of developm81t.

Should it become necessary to erect a mill, 80me souroe of water must

be sought. Probably the mine i taell will provide a eonsiderable f10w at

depth.

The equipment on tlB ground can be made to serve, Gut for economical

work, I would reeo:mrn.and aoquiring a new eompressor with engin.e, and 2 new

jack hammers. The new equipment would cost about i>5000 set up.

A prospective purchaser of this property would do.well to consider

also the property of George ]hmn and William Kelly ,comprising 10 claims

and a fraction.,

Some of these clailns are shown on the map. The other lie to south

shwoing in the oenter of the Black Cat olaim to cut the ore at a.bout 150

feet belowth.e surface. Six months time will be given to do this work.

The purchase price is ,25)000. This property can be worked in. oonjuno,tion
