One of my searches this yr  ?
Will be "The (A!) Cave of Silver" !   Tongue
This "Cave!", may be associated with A Lost Jesuit Mission & It's Gold/Silver Cache !  Tongue
Undecided
In, The Same General area.
Both! Are located right along the Az/Mex. Border.
Roughly, About !,  12-14 miles, due east of Nogales, AZ.!
This area is SO! Spooky!   Undecided
That the early Indians/Mexicans, would not go anywhere near it!
The Mission was actually relocated/found, back in The Late 1940s!
But!
This finder, was killed,   Cry
 
OH! YES!
You, of faint heart...!   :Smiley
   Angry  BE WARNED!    Shocked
 The Area IS! FULLY CURSED!   Shocked
He Was Killed ? By, one of the LARGEST STORM/FLASH FLOODS EVER! recorded in this part of the country !    Cry

But!
Luckily, Not before his partner had a roll of film, given to him, by the 1st Partner,  developed that show the Mission and it's Treasure Cave!
NOW!
I said, "SHOWED    THE !   MISSION !"   Grin
I didn't say, THE! LOcation! 
When the 2d partner got back from a resupply run, his partner's camp was gone!
A search was made by the local Sheriff's Office,
But!
 The First Partner's, body was never found!

NOW!
The Cave of Silver WAS FOUND!
Back in the Early 1960's
 By a Husband & Wife, Who!, while out on a Prospecting/Rockhounding Trip!
" & "
 Who/were Serious "P & R'ers" ,
Not! Just, Your local weekenders !
The cave, has been described to me!
By the "H & W" Team,
As having pure silver veins running thru & top/bottom, & around, the surrounding walls!
The "Silver" was described to me as being "Sparkling" !
NOW! We all know!  :Smiley
That "native silver", looks more like "lead", a, dull gray color, when exposed to the air!
So!
I expect that the "silver" is really, what is called, "Ruby Silver" !
Which has, small shining, crystals, reddish in color, thus it's name, "Ruby Silver", as part of it's make up!
I'll be glad to write/publish more on this story of the Mission/Cave, if interest warrants?

The so called "Ruby Silver" you refer to is actually the mineral - Prousite- which is a silver arsenic sulphide. If you would happen to find this deposit- it would be worth much more as mineral specimens then the silver in them. Prousite is a very aesthetic and valuable mineral desired by collectors everywhere. Good luck on your trip and hope you find it.
