Lost Horse Mine

Lost Horse Mine is a historic gold and silver mine in the Lost Horse Valley of Joshua Tree National Park.[1] Between 1894 and 1931, it produced 10,000 ounces of gold and 16,000 ounces of silver.[1] It was first developed by Johnny Lang, then by J.D. Ryan.[1] Scarce resources for steam powered pumps and mining equipment, led to denuding the local mountains of trees, which is still clearly visible in 2014.[1]
