There are several private residences very nearby with dogs in the yards. The cemetery is not fenced and, as of March 2023, the property had recently been cleared with heavy equipment and all vegetation (large trees, shrubs, cactus, etc) was dozed into a nearby wash. Whomever cleared the area tried to avoid damage to the obvious graves, but it is very obvious that there are many many more burials that are no longer identifiable.
Several death certificates of individuals buried here list the burial location as "Twin Buttes." This is not the "Twin Buttes Cemetery" listed on findagrave, though some of the graves have erroneously listed there. The two cemeteries are about 7.3 miles apart, but it will be difficult to determine burial locations because the "Twin Buttes Cemetery" was razed by the mine surrounding it. It is hoped that county and family records might help determine which graves are in each cemetery.
