This district is in the Dragoon Pass, on the northern end of the Dragoon Mountains, near the line of the Southern Pacific Railroad. The formation is granite, lime, and porphyry. The ores are mostly carbonates, containing both gold and silver. Several claims have been bonded to Eastern parties, who are now developing them. There is a fair supply of timber on the mountains, principally scrub oak; and water for milling purposes can be obtained by sinking.
