3 kilometres north of the Middle Ironcap hill.
Ultramafic host dipping 35 degrees west, containing lenticular 10-60 metres thick olivine, with minor talc, serpentine, chlorite, anthophyllite. Foliated plagioclase amphibolite forms the Footwall. The Hanging Wall is quartz-magnetite, grunerite, banded iron formation, with some pyrrhotite-pyrite layers, with amphibolite and tremolite-chlorite-carbonate rock.
Disseminated Ni sulphides in metadunite, 1200 metres long and up to 16.5 metres thick. Mainly pyrite and pyrrhotite, with sub-ordinate pentlandite, and minor chalcopyrite altered to violarite, pyrite and marcasite in the oxidised zone.
