Deposit: Discovery year: 1980's sulfides occur in veins and shear zones in diorite porphyry which has been metamorphosed by intrusion of a mid-cretaceous quartz monzonite. Molybdenite associated with chalcopyrite was found in one vein; hessite (a silver telluride mineral) was identified in one sample of chalcocite . In two areas, sulfides are diasseminated and are associated with biotite, k-feldspar and magnetite in foliated diorite porphyry .

Development: Discovered by following stream-sediment anomaly of USBM geologists

Ore(s): Shear Zones
