Structure: Reg.Struct: Folding And Faulting
Alteration: Hydrothermal, Along Footwall, Especially
Deposit: Adit follows rolling but flat-dipping crushed quartz vein in phyllitic shale. Vein material occurs As pods and lenticular masses along wallrock foliation. Quartz vein is sheared and Fe-ox stained. Drift trends n30w, schistosity here is flat in back but rolls to about 35 NE on right rib. One-foot-thick mass of vein quartz on the hanging wall; about 0.5 ft on the floor. Small amount of stoping up dip to the west.; model name could also be: comstock epithermal vein. A W group of 6 patented claims. Main vein was developed 300 ft. Along strike. And 350 ft. Down dip by open stopes, drifts and pits, with considerable underground workings. ; info.src : 1 pub lit; 2 unpub rept; 3 field observ
