Köppen climate type:
Structure: Wichita Mountains Lugert Granite Intrusive
Tectonics: Aulacogen
Commodity: R.j. Vanderslice, 1104 w. 12th st., sulphur, ok, sent in samples to mr. Brogden.
Deposit: Part of a vein system that strikes se. Mapped by ryan and veeder (1936) (loc. A) and ryan (1936) (loc. B). Loc. A probably mapped by brogden (1942, north deposit) but probably mislocated. Oakes located brogden's samples nearer to c-nw-2, but the location was supposed to be farther n. Length, width, and thickness according to brogden (1942).
Geology: Geology by polk (1948) and merritt (1958). The ore is in a ravine trending e- W in a granite hill, exposed in a trench a few feet long and in a shaft about 15 ft deep.
Rock formation(s): Lugert Granite
Ore(s): Hydrothermal Veins
