Numerous adits were driven into the property in the 1800's. In a 1955 report prepared for the Pacific Metals Company silver production was reported to have reached approximately 70,000 ounces a month during the late 1800's.

Historical records and onsite visits of the Santa Cruz Silver-Gold property confirm the presence of multiple vein sets. This is the same pattern as found throughout the Sierra Madre Occidental and which have shown significant new potential when evaluated using modern exploration techniques; Minefinders' Dolores and Gammon Lake's Ocampo deposits are two recent examples. In the past these veins supported a significant mining operation for some period of time.

The Santa Cruz Property has undefined potential along strike and at depth. It has never been drilled and the existing workings have penetrated only part way along each vein system. This property is fairly open forest with many old roads and nearby access to power and a major river.
