A Zn-Cu-Pb-Mo occurrence/prospect located in the S½NE¼ sec. 10, T5S, R23E, SBM, 3.7 km (2.3 miles) W of Black Point (coordinates of record), on Bureau of land Management administered land. MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 10 meters.
The deposit is in carbonate rocks and pelitic schists overlying leucrocratic granite. A thrust fault appears to be the contact between these formations. Local rocks include Precambrian granitic rocks, unit 1 (Eastern Mojave Desert).
Workings include underground openings comprised of 8 adits min rthe carbonate rocks and pelitic schists.
