The Spring Mountain District is located along the east flank of the Lemhi Range just south of the Texas Mining District. Most mines in the district are in the Targhee and Challis National Forests.
Lead-silver deposits were discovered during the early 1880's at the head of Spring Mountain Canyon and in Lemhi Union Gulch. Ore mined was shipped to the Nicholia lead smelter until it closed in 1889. In the Spring of 1909, a 50 ton-capacity smelter was built at Harm, located near the mouth of Spring Mountain Canyon, to process district ore. The smelter operated for 17 days during 1909 and for 21 days during 1910 (Umpleby, 1913, p. 85). Mining has been sporadic since. Total production from the district is estimated to be about $1 million (Ruppel and Lopez, 1988, p. 101).
Mineralization, similar to that seen in the Texas District, consists of lead silver replacement deposits which formed along northeast trending, northwest dipping fractures in limestone and dolomite of the Jefferson and Saturday Mountain Formations. However, unlike those in the Texas District, the lenticular orebodies here are narrow, probably averaging less than 6 inches thick. The principal ore minerals are cerussite, anglesite, smithsonite, hemimorphite, galena, and probably cerargyrite in an earthy, limonitic, and jasperoidal gangue (Ruppel and Lopez, 1988, p. 109).
