Structure: Ladron Fault Trends N30w And Is Cut By Smaller Northeast Trending Fault. Paleozoic Sediments Were Slightly Folded Prior To Ore Deposition Forming Small Anticlines And Breccias Beneath Shale Where Replacement Deposits Formed.
Alteration: Silicification Of Dolomite Sealed Vein For Later Ore Deposition.
Commodity: Samples chosen to represent different rock types and were collected from the brush heap mine dump. Samples collected and assayed by nmbmmr.
Deposit: Deposit occurs along the northwest trending ladron fault in veins and As bedding replacement near the dolomite-shale contact. 3 patented claims, mineral survey nos. 798a, 798b and 799, covering about 57 acres.
Geology: For general geology see kingston district.
Rock formation(s): Fusselman Dolomite;Percha Shale
Ore(s): Mineralized Hot Solutions Were Channeled Along Faults And Localized By Overlying Impermeable Shale.
