Köppen climate type:
Structure: Western Fault; Eastern Fault
Deposit: Claims are along a belt of iron-stained breccia striking n15w, 20 50 ft wide. Breccia occcurs about along strike of the western fault. The eastern fault zone is represented by a breccia about 0.25 mile east of the claims. Siliceous float that carries residual galena, stained with yellow, earthy cerussite and occasionally by copper carbonates, indicating some fair-sized quartz veins probably occur in the yellowish, shaley limestone between the two fault zones.
Development: No development work done As of 1913
Ore(s): Fault Zones
