Gold Mine Features:
The Success No. 1 Lode (Sur. No. 19679) claim was filed in 1912 and mined gold until the late 30’s or early 40’s. The ranch house is on the North/East section of the 8 acre claim. The owner has full mineral rights for the gold mine.
The following vein structure graphic and text is taken and quoted from The Geology of Black Tiger Gulch written as a masters thesis by Dr.Langenheim Jr. at CU 1947.
"Success Number One Mine
Although there are no stopes in the open workings of the mine, some ore was produced from a winze near the end of the drift according to Mr. Alf Thurston.
About four hundred feet of vein is exposed in drifts in the m
ine. (CLICK HERE or on the image to see a large view of the mine vein structure.) In this distance the vein is from one to four inches wide with many branching veinlets near the main body of the Iron Dike exposed at the breast. Only the more important of these have been mapped. In addition to the main body of diabase, three smaller bodies are cut by the vein. A fault striking north twenty degrees east and dipping fifty degrees east offsets the east block about twenty feet south.
From the location of the winze, the branching of the vein, and usual conditions in the gulch, it is believed that the ore was concentrated in the diabase.
Little Belle and Little Belle Western Extension
Both of the mines are developed by crosscuts to the Little Belle vein and both produced gold telluride ores. The Little Belle, at present inaccessible, produced very rich ore where the vein cut diabase and failed to produce well elsewhere. This statement is supported by Mr. Alf Thurston and Dr. E. E. Wahlstrom; Mr Thurston owned the mine while it was producing and Dr. Wahlstrom has been in the mine and inspected it."
