Description
Hidden in the Bristol Mountain Wilderness Area of the Mojave Desert, this stunning 40-acre parcel remains in private hands and was previously an active mine, harvesting a rare and beautiful onyx. The onyx - known as ribbon rock or strawberry onyx - is showcased by its vivid, reddish-pink hues with pronounced bands and swirls. There are multiple deposits remaining on the property, with one estimate showing over six million cubic ft of material that has not been harvested. Aside from the mining potential here, this is a beautiful piece of California desert wildland - truly a place to escape the world at large, this would be a place to go for a spiritual reset, a sabbatical from daily life, or for annual camping adventures. Surrounded on all sides by government owned land, it is highly unusual for a parcel like this to be privately owned. A crude timber-framed mining cabin remains on-site, with breathtaking vistas in every direction. Intensely private setting yet roughly 12 miles northeast of Ludlow and Interstate 40. Note that although this property lies within the boundaries of the Needles Unified School District, Ludlow is the nearest town. Property must be visited with a 4WD vehicle given the nature of the access roads.
