| Deposit | QTZ FISSURE VEIN IN GRANODIORITE; VEIN CONTAINS ORE SHOOTS TO 1 FT THICK; VEIN HAS DISSEMINATED PYRITE. |
| Deposit | IN THE 2ND ADIT THE NW DIP WAS NOT TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT SO THE VEIN WAS NOT REACHED. BY TURNING AT A RIGHT ANGLE AND DRIVING AT LEAST 150 FT THE VEIN COULD BE REACHED. PATTY, 1921, SUGGESTS THE RICHEST ORE IS BETWEEN THE MAIN TUNNEL LEVEL AND THE SURFACE OUTCROPS. AT ABOUT -270 FT IN THE WINZE THERE IS 200-300 TONS OF BROKEN ORE, SAID TO AVG 20 OZS AG/TON. IF THE ORE IS OF THIS QUALITY AND THE VEIN DOES CONTINUTE DOWNWARD, THEN THERE COULD BE A FAIR AMOUNT OF POTENTIAL RESOURCES BOTH ABOVE AND BELOW THE MAIN TUNNEL. |
