Deposit EXISTE UNA VETILLA MINERALIZADA FORMADA POR CUARZO Y CHISPAS DE CHALCOPIRITA, SUS EXTREMOS SE ENCUENTRAN CUBIERTOS DE MATERIAL DETRITICO. LAS CAJAS FORMADAS POR ANDESITA HAN SUFRIDO IMPREGNACIONES SUPERGENETICAS DE SOLUCIONES DE MINERALES OXIDADOS DE COBRE EN UN TRAMO DE 5 M POR 2 M DE ANCHO, DANDO LA APARIENCIA DE UNA IMPORTANTE FORMACION MINERALIZADA.
Deposit LOS MINERALES ENCONTRADOS EN LA ZONA ESTUDIADA, POR SUS BAJAS LEYES Y ESCASO VOLUMEN NO OFRECEN POSIBILIDADES PARA EFECTUAR EXPLORACIONES, NO JUSTIFICANDOSE POR TANTO NINGUNA INVERSION.
