Located in Gentle Annie Gulch near the headwaters approximately 3.0 miles (4.8 kilometers) northeast of Mullan, Idaho. This prospect consisted of two separate adits some distance apart. They were originally known as Lucky Calumet 1 and Lucky Calumet 2. On some maps, particularly Hobbs et al (1965), they are indicated separately. Both are located in the St. Regis Formation with no major differences in either structure or deposits. For this reason they are lumped together under this single locality.

Development Status: Occurrence
Host Rock Unit: St Regis Formation
Structure: Unnamed faulting likely associated with the Snowstorm Fault
Host Rock: Argillite, Quartzite
Deposit Type: Veins
