Here's another view of the foundation. Like many old desert mines, the Leiser Ray has undergone numerous name and ownership changes since its beginnings as a gold, silver, lead and copper mine in the 1890's to its eventual final incarnation as a 1920-1930's era vanadium mine. Consequently, it's hard to separate out the various dates of the remains. This structure, though, seems consistent with the earliest phase.
