NBMG Sample Site No. 2
Alteration: Silicification, Feldspathification, Sericitization
Deposit: Discovery year: 1930's? small circular outcrop of iron-stained silicified, feldspathized intrusive found in drainage and small hill at foot of slope. Outcrop of diorite to north and east, appears to have been intruded into lone mountain granite. Samples taken from area are slightly radioactive. Limonite occurs As fracture coatings and As points disseminated throughout the rock.
Development: Old claims show name clarab---(not readable), probably dating from 1930's. No work visible
Rock formation(s): Lone Mountain Pluton
