The Golden Turkey Property is a collection of 3 lode claims covering 60 contiguous acres, situated to cover the general trending of the Golden Turkey lode which is thought to run generally east and west, parallel to the Gold Belt lode. The Gold Belt lode is only a few hundred feet from the Golden Turkey and is contained in the claims as part of the Golden Turkey.
The Golden Turkey was located on or around 1925, it was prospected and held by H.C. Mitchell until 1932 when it was leased to Golden Turkey Mining Company. Golden Turkey Mining Company operated the mine and made substantial profits from 1933 to 1941 when the War Act forced the closure of the mine. The Golden Turkey never recovered its former providence after the War Act and has languished in the hands of small miners and prospectors who do not have the capital to process the thousands of tons of reserves which are documented underground and on the surface.
In 1973, Nezona Mining created an in-depth report on the property, including assays, and estimated tonnage and returns. Based on his reporting, conservatively, at the Golden Turkey, there were one hundred thousand (100,000) tons of dump rock which returned an average of $20 per ton in gold (18%+/-). The tailings previously processed by the mill were assayed at $25 per ton in gold (23.5%). These figures calculated with a gold price of $106.00 per ounce.
In todays figures, with gold assumed at $1290.00 per ounce, the dumps and tailings piles would be worth over ninety-nine million ($99,000,000) dollars. This figure does not account for any of the ores or minerals still left in place underground. According to geological documentation, the richest bodies of the veins have yet to have been tapped. From the 1973 report:
"There are excellent geologic structures on all of the claims where, thru core drilling, a large tonnage of are can be developed. All of the mine has been developed laterally, just under the surface rock, to the point where the veins turn down vertically. The vertical vein deposition is contacted on the west side by an intrusive diorite dike, and is the parent vein. At the present time, no one has drilled or shafted downward into these vertical veins. There can be developed, with sound operation, very large amounts of high grade ore from these vertically orientated veins"
Property Description:
The Golden Turkey property is located just off of the well maintained Crown King Highway. This is a graded dirt road. Roughly three miles from the main highway running from Prescott to Phoenix. The roads and paths around the claim have deteriorated significantly and will require some clearing to be passable. It is possible to drive within a few hundred feet of the mines with a 2WD vehicle.
