| Deposit | THE ZALLA M IS IN FLOWS AND BRECCIAS OF THE EOCENE KLONDIKE MOUNTAIN FORMATION. THE ROCKS APPEAR TO BE RHYOLITIC IN COMPOSITION, BUT ON CLOSE EXAMINATION, OUTLINES OF WHAT APPEAR TO BE PYROXENE PHENOCRYSTS ARE FOUND. THIS SUGGESTS THE ROCKS ARE PROBABLY ALTERED ANDESITE (STOFFEL, 1990, GEOL. MAP, P. 11; PEARSON, 1967, GEOL. MAP). ; INFO.SRC : 1 PUB LIT |
