As reported by Reed (1967a and b) veins of copper mineralization hosted in Kona dolomite of Middle Precambrian age are located in the NE 1/4 of NW 1/4 of Section 1. T47N R25W, west of Harvey.
"Chalcocite occurs in tan, highly-sheared siliceous slate, in veins and irregular masses, occasionally replacing pyrite. It is closely associated with quartz, chlorite, sericite and minor dolomite. At depth, some native copper is also found in red quartzite, occupying fractures and interstitially replacing quartz boundaries."
