The Cow Boy Mine was shipping ore ca. 1900 to smelters from the Zada and Gold Peak claims situated in Studhorse Canyon. The mine was worked steadily through 1906 employing from 12 to 40 men, and shipping 10 to 15 tons per day. A new mill was erected in July 1906 however its performance was disappointing. The Cow Boy reported to have produced about $100,000 prior to 1905, and $200,000 prior to 1913.
