Midway Gold #3 is located on the northeastern flanks of the Belmont Mountains. The claim is about 2 miles north east of the Black Pearl Mine and about one mile northeast of the Scott Mine. A large detachment fault strikes in a NW-SE direction and the veins are situated on high angle silicified faults that strike eastward and can be traced for over 4 miles. Minerals consist of (gold up to .10 opt, silver to 7 opt., copper to 1.5%, lead, and zinc to 20% combined). The ore occurs in pockets, quartz rich veins, thin to wide shear zones along strike. About 65% of the veins are covered with a thin layer of alluvium but can be traced by float. There is an old covered shaft.
Midway Gold #3 is a lode claim located about 25 miles SSW of Wickenburg in Maricopa, County. Wickenburg is a full service town with a beautiful golf course and airport. Access is a paved road for about 18 miles with the remainder a good dirt road with a few washes that get cut up from time to time with our monsoon storms. A local rancher has a windmill and corral about 1500 feet south. You might be able to cut a deal with him for water to work with. I would not recommend drinking it. The Rancher tows a large stock trailer about once a week up there and you might be able to get a small high centered RV or travel trailer but not likely to get a big rig. Please check the last few miles prior to attempting access.
