The Sonora region offers a wide range of mineral resources, both metallic and nonmetallic, highlighting their large deposits of copper and molybdenite, gold, silver, graphite, barite, tungsten, etc., which exploitation has placed Sonora as the number one mining state in Mexico.
Historically, Industrias Peñoles, S.A.B. de C.V ("Peñoles") operated a portion of this site as the El Gochico mine. The reserves in late 1981 were listed as 500,000 proven with 185 g/t Ag, 9.81% Zn, 0.51% Pb and .73% Cu. Another 301,000 tonnes of probable reserve @ 120 g/t Ag, 8.2% Zn, 0.36% Pb and 0.59% Cu. A Possible Resource of 1,412,000 tonnes was also reported. Mining production ended in mid-1985 when metal prices dropped and the mine closed. Mill production was recorded at 12,000 tonnes per month with a total production of 540,000 tonnes. The infrastructure includes roads, transmission line, drilling reports and mine development which cost Peñoles $17,000,000.00. This cost was recovered in the first 2.5 years of production.
