Valentine1
It is an arduous climb up to the mine, but not as steep as most of the mines in this area.

The Valentine mine (No. 63, pl. 30) is the southern-most of the group accessible by Porter Wash and lies about 6 miles south of Goodsprings, in the Goodsprings Mining District, in Clark County. It is owned by the Valentine Mining Company and was worked intermittently until 1910. The principal exploration is a shaft 310 feet deep , inclined 36 degrees, from the bottom of which there is a crosscut 300 feet west and some drifts. There are also three short tunnels about 300 feet north of this shaft.
