The Running Wolf Mine is a documented mineral property located in the secluded mountains of Judith Basin County, Montana.
Featuring two tunnel-style mines rich in Silver, with reports of up to nine hundred ounces per ton of Silver in the local deposits.
A small creek with alluvial Gold deposits runs through the claim, with an old miners' cabin built in the late 1980s, and a very secluded location.
Located in the Running Wolf mining district, the Running Wolf Mine features high-grade Galena deposits, rich in Silver and Lead.
With little surviving records of production, the district experienced its peak in the early 1900s, with intermittent work completed on the Running Wolf and Sir Walter Scott mines during the 1970s through the early 1990s.
The deposits were known to contain large quantities of Silver, though the travel time to nearby smelters in Helena and Butte discouraged early mining outfits from larger undertakings in the early years.
After WWII, a renewed interest in the district began, with small groups of local mine owners working, and leasing the mines for Silver production into the early 1990s.
The Running Wolf Mine shows small-scale underground work, accomplished by a single owner from 1993 to 2021.
Mineral Estimates:
The small annual flowing creek provides necessary water for mining and camping needs.
Located one hour West of Stanford, Montana.
The site is accessible with most vehicles during the warmer months and snowmobiles only during the winter.
Accessible by older dirt roads, suitable for any higher clearance vehicles, and most higher clearance campers.

Mineral Estimates:
- Primary workings consist of two adits driven to an estimated 750' to 900' feet, with estimated drifting on multiple levels.
- The caved haulage adit is present near the cabin base to meet the SW trending deposit.
- The Second caved adit is present directly across the creek on the
- Estimated ore available ore grades are 0.25-.89 OPT Au (Gold), with 8.5-800.00 OPT Ag (Silver) and trace base metals.
- Free milling Gold is available in the volcanically altered mineral-vein material, as well as in the gravel beds of the creek.
