[1][4] In 1936, a 50-ton stamp and amalgamation mill was added, and subsequently ran by a man called C.H.

[2][4] The mill started processing ore assayed at $80 per ton but the value quickly fell to around $7.50.

The new manager was Matt Gorman, a foreman who had worked at the neighboring Aztec Mine.

Gorman oversaw the addition of a 50-ton ball crusher along the banks of the South Ponil as well as mechanical separators, to retrieve the gold from the crushed ore, and a few new buildings.

[5] The mill site has three standing log cabins, two were built while the mine was operational and one was added by Philmont.

The actual mine is abandoned and access is restricted from both the public and Philmont participants.
