Chances are that it's not a Spanish mine. Here in Oklahome what mining activity the Spanish did was pretty well concealed. It could be Mexican and there is a difference. More than likely it is a cave. The few Spanish mines I've seen that weren't concealed, were vertical shafts and not very deep.

I may also note here that if it is Spanish there will be signs in the area.

Lots of Spanish and Mex. mines in Okla. In Wichita Mts. and elsewhere. Lost silver diggings near Wright City was said to be Spanish at one time, later it was a Methodist minister and two young Choctaw boys. Wilson Zocke knew of it, so did Joe Oklahoma, the WW1 codetalker.

If it is in Eastern Oklahoma, it may be an indian flint site, or of course, we have numerous outlaw caves that dot the area, with all the stories that go with, Belle Starr, of course the KGC, Cherokee Bill, etc., just be careful over in this area, the boyz dont take kindly to their annual harvests, and the meth labs seem to be growing out of the ground nowdays.

Adios

Their are Spanish Mines in Missouri also. going from the Southwest part of the state up to the middle Eastern and South part of the state.
There is one outside of Piedmont Mo. And when you find one you will know as they put Crosses all over the place and carved them into the walls of rock around the area and mine .

It seems they where fanatical about doing this at there Mine sites.
