History of mining at North Moccasin mountains
Descriptive article by C W Freeman surveys North Moccasin geology, oxidation of ores, and mining history. It notes laccolithic intrusion forming the mountains, a sequence from early Paleozoic to Cretaceous, and Kendall as the only town nearby. Gold ore occurs as irregular replacement deposits with cyanide processing, plus a new unoxidized ore at 600-foot level needing roasting before cyanidation. Production figures for 1908 to 1908-1909 are listed for North Moccasins and Fergus County.

North Moccasin mines dominate county gold output
The North Moccasin mines accounted for about 80 percent of county gold, with Fer gus County leading Montana in early 1900s output. The Barnes King and Kendall ventures formed the main sites, with new ore bodies found after 1912 and a cyanide mill boosting extraction to near ninety percent. The Kendall mine closed in 1912 after exhaust of known ore bodies, while North Moccasin operations continued under new management and investment.
