Help in finding a name for this mine

[KDT1970]

I went here today and would like the name of the mine, I also have more pics.

The mine you have marked at "Honerine" is actually the Tip Top. The one you are asking about is the Honerine. That was it's main portal.

Are there any others that can verify this? All imformation I have says the one marked is the Hornerine mine and the tip top mine being further into the mountain range. The one I am asking about is a large mine. We were there for a few hours exploring and went in, i'll bet at least a mile and didnt come close to exploring all of it. We stayed mainly to the flow of air, but there are a ton of side shafts and shafts going up and down.

I've seen both mines marked as the Honerine. However, IF (and that's a big "IF") I remember correctly, I've also seen one of them with an alternate spelling of the name: Honorine.

And as for the "Tip Top", I've seen that one marked at a different location...

The first mine that you have posted with the ?? is the actual Honerine. This was the main portal for quite a few years. What I read is that after sometime, the company that took it over in the 40's-70's used the Baur Tunnel to access the mine. The mine up above it and too the north is the Tip Top. Somehow it connects though I'm not sure where. Further up that canyon there is another set of large tailings dumps. Those belong to the Galena King.

I can also second or technically third that the mine you have questions about is in fact the Honerine.

That mine is the Honerine and the mine that you have marked as the Honerine is the Tip Top mine that is said to connect to the Honerine like lobster68w said. Further up the canyon is the Galena King mine, which also connects to the Honerine.
