Was discovered in 1904 and today is marked by an old headframe. Extensive rock dumps and an open cut called the "Silver Sidewalk" exist on site.
In the fall of 2018 the headframe was torn down.

| ⓘ Acanthite Formula: Ag2S References: |
| ⓘ Allargentum Formula: (Ag1-xSbx) Description: Graphic intergrowth of allargentum and antimony rich silver. The silver represents exsolutions from an original allargentum that contained more silver than the present allargentum. These intergrowths form a homogeneous phase by annealing. it is therefore suggested that the Silver-Allargentum intergrowths were formed by deposition of a homogeneous solid solution which subsequently exsolved into antimonial silver and Allargentum on cooling.
