A volcanogenic massive sulphide deposit thought to be of the Kuroko type, hosted by the Chopawamsic Formation. In the rather linear trend where the massive sulphides of the Mineral District occur the Chopawamsic is predominantly metamorphosed intermediate and felsic volcanics. The ore bodies are stratiform lenses, often dominantly pyritic, that contain variable amounts of sphalerite, galena, and chalcopyrite. A variety of minor minerals occurs thinly scattered among the major ore minerals. Gangue minerals include quartz, carbonate, silicates, magnetite, and gahnite. Gahnite is widespread within the ores. Its occurrence in the Mineral District has been described by Sandhaus and Craig (1986).
The massive sulphides of the Mineral District were mainly mined for pyrite to produce sulphur and sulphuric acid. Pyrite mining ended when cheaper, and more abundant sources of elemental sulphur were developed in the early 20th century. Copper, lead, and zinc were generally byproducts.
Like the other massive sulphide mines of the area, the Armenius has been "reclaimed". Recent air photos suggest that the mineral-bearing dumps have been bulldozed, recontoured, heavily limed, covered and revegetated leaving little or nothing of mineralogical interest.
Minerals can still be found in some parts of the mine, however the parcel is privately owned and posted no trespassing.
The most substantial effort to reclaim the property happened in the late 1970s into the early 1980s. The dumps were leveled and biosolids and lime were utilized to create a medium on which trees and vegetation could establish themselves. The State of Virginia closed several open mine shafts at the property in 2011 or 2012. However, unseen underground hazards may still exist at the property.
