Ethiudna Pipers, shaft to ~15 m, mining chrysocolla associated with psilomelane from a "hanging wall quartzite". The host lithologies were very similar to those examined in detail for Ethiudna Mine, which was located ~450 m to the north. Chrysocolla associated with psilomelane and containing cobalt, formed a 0.6 m wide lode in the "hanging wall quartzite" that dipped 45 N (Bulletin 34).
