Ore body information

  • General form LENSES
    Strike N55 TO 70E
    Dip 60 SE
    Thickness 10.97M

Controls for ore emplacement

  • Shear Zone. Said That Best Ore Generally Found Along Hanging Wall. Spots And Stains Of Manganese Oxide Were Favorable Indications.

Comments on the geologic information

  • SHEAR ZONE AT RIGHT ANGLES TO SCHISTOSITY OF WALL ROCK. SCHISTOSE BANDING STRIKES N55W, DIPS 60 SW. IN A FEW PLACES, PEGMATITIC LENSES FOLLOW TREND OF SCHISTOSITY. ALBITE OCCURS IN CONTACT ZONE WITH SMALL FRAGMENTS OF SCHIST INCLUDED IN QUARTZ, AND IS HIGHLY KAOLINIZED. DIORITE, ALASKITE, (SODA) GRANITE PORPHYRY DIKES INTRUDE.
