Sec 19 T26N R37E
Alteration: Kaolinization, Silicification, Argillization
Deposit: Claims first located in 1956. A small amount of fluorspar has been stockpiled, and possibly some has been shipped. Explored by numerous pits and adits. ; info.src : 1 pub lit; 2 unpub rept; 3 field observ
Geology: Fluorspar is exposed in 3 principal areas. The southern most occurs in limestone with a few 1 to 2 ft thick. Claystone beds; altered material is quartz, calcite & kaolinite with a few irregular pods of fluorspar present in the altered rock. In the second area, 800 ft. NE of the first, carbonates have been altered (argillized & silicified) and brecciated and contains abundant iron oxides and fluorspar in veinlets, small pods, and at least 3 large, irregular pods. The third area, 700 ft farther north in an adjacent canyon, is in a conglomerate consisting of small chert & dolomite fragments in a dolomite matrix and contains small amount fluorite in irregular veinlets & small masses.
Rock formation(s): Grass Valley Formation
Ore(s): Brecciation
