The Sunshine Mine is a documented mineral property located in the Winston mining district of Montana.
Featuring over twelve hundred feet of flowing creek with annually replenished flower Gold, a secondary mountain spring water source, and a secluded mountainside location.
The Winston mining district boasts a rich history of mining dating back to 1865.
Gold, Silver, and Copper are the primary commodities of interest, with secondary base metals present. Recorded production between 1933 and 1955 shows over 100,000 ounces of Gold produced.
Located in the coveted south Weasel Creek quad, this placer claim holds Gold values from the majority of the Winston district lode mines, including the historic East Pacific Mine, and the Sunshine Tunnel.
Secondary placer deposits are located on the stream-level gravels, in an oxidized gravel layer of approximately 6" inches in width.
The mining claim has not been worked with any heavy machinery or modern dredging methods.
Estimated Gold values for the placer deposit are noted at between: 0.10 and 0.75 grams Au/Gold per yard.
A smaller stream flows north into the main waterway from a spring-fed water source located about 125 yards from the mine face, providing a secondary resource of yearlong flowing water.
Three camping and staging areas are available near the road and Creekside areas, suitable for multiple vehicles or campers.
Conveniently located within 45 minutes of Helena Montana, and 10 minutes from the small town of, Winston.
This exceptional mineral property is available to the beginning enthusiasts up to an established mining company.
