The Twin River Mine is a documented mineral property in the Twin River mining district of Nye, County Nevada.
Featuring multiple underground entrances via adit-tunnel and open stope shaft, heavily mineralized ore reserves and a secluded hilltop location.
Located in the early 1860's, the Twin River district is noted for producing : Gold, Silver, Copper, Tungsten, Zinc and Molybdenum.
Small gold veins occur at various localities throughout this area. Near the mouth of Ophir Canyon, high-grade gold ore occurs in a narrow quartz vein, and near-surface ores reportedly yielded appreciable quantities of gold.
Primary workings consist of a large open stope inclined shaft and dual haulage-adits connecting the underground stock workings.
The mine shaft was once sheltered under a large wooden headframe and processing building, remnants of the headframe rest around the entrance points.
Shaft is developed into a mineralized outcropping with a 15 degree decline strike in to the lower underground stock workings.
Haulage-adits feature partial wooden cribbing and supports on the entrance portals, with defined mineralized vein structure on the mine face.
Overburden removal and shaft access maintenance will be required for further underground exploration.
