The Evening Star (Star Prospect) claims (No. 57, pl. 30) lies along the sides of a ravine 0.3 miles southwest of the Houghton mine, in the Goodsprings Mining District, in Clark County. There are two tunnels that explore small shoots of lead and zinc ore along a fault that trends northwest. On the south side of the gulch a 100-foot tunnel on the fault encounters sporadic nodules of galena. An 80-foot tunnel high on the ridge on the north side appears to have produced no ore of any value.
The workings have yielded a little lead and low-grade zinc ore.
