This is one of the districts which was formed a few years ago during an excitement in silver mining in this part of the Territory, consequent upon finding several rich mines. It is situated immediately north of the Aubrey District, and embraces in its eastern part the Hualapai range of mountains, which is undoubtedly a rich mineral region. The district contains plenty of wood and water, thus affording facilities for successful mining. The ores are gold, silver, copper, and lead. The Arnold and Hibernia were at one time considered valuable locations. The Magendie and Gunsight have both produced good ore. There is one ten-stamp mill in the district.
