The 75-ton mill is the first thing you see when you come to this mine site. The mine was discovered in 1905 and first worked in 1912 for gold, later for mercury and antimony as the ore tenor changed with depth. There are a few empty buildings in the camp, but the rotating furnace is the star of the show. Ore would be roasted before cyanidation. The multi-level mine itself is in poor condition and mostly caved. Reportedly, the site is fenced now.
