Geology: The regional geology of the area consists of pelitic schist, calc-silicate schist, marble, and quartzite (Brew and Ford,1985). Gehrels and Berg (1992) show a small pluton of Cretaceous granodiorite west of the prospect. Redman and others (1989) describe the rocks beneath the placer as black phyllite and mafic metavolcanic rocks. Very small amounts of fine gold have been panned from the creek (Redman and others, 1989). The location given by Wells and others (1986) appears to be incorrect (see TR019).
Age: Quaternary.
Commodities (Major) - Au
Development Status: Undetermined.
Deposit Model: Placer gold (Cox and Singer, 1986; model 39a)
