Sulfide deposits were located in the early days but not mined because of processing and marketing conditions. Future plans for the Horsehoe Mine project include installation of an underground hoist and refurbishing of the shaft and then development of ore zones on all levels. As development progresses in determining the extent and nature of the ores, plans for a flotation mill will be formulated, Finder noted. exploration and the last 27 feet have penetrated a virgin sulfide copper-silve- r body with the face still in ore. Preliminary assays from the copper zone show a total copper, silver and gold value in excess of $34 per ton.
