Alteration: Metavolcanics Completely Sericitized Along Vein
Deposit: The main vein: strikes n45e, dips 40-50se, explored by inclined shaft, on adit level vein averages 18 inches in thickness & consists of brecciated quartz recemented by later quartz. On 45-foot level the main vein is 36 inches wide but pinches to 2 inches at bottom of shaft. Bindheimite is present As blebs, pods, & veinlets up to 8 inches wide in the quartz. Yellow sb-oxide present. Pyrite occurs As blebs in pods and cubes of limonite, both in the quartz and wall rock. A narrow vein occurs 350 feet to south and strikes n35w, dips 85 W with only minor amount of bindheimite and sb-oxides.
