| Deposit | ACCORDING TO BASTIN (REC 700) IT IS POSSIBLE THAT IT WOULD P WORK THIS LOCALITY FOR ITS FELDSPAR, MICA, AND GEMS, BUT IT WOULD BE UNPROFITABLE TO WORK IT FOR ANY ONE OF THESE ALONE. CASSITERITE COULD POSSIBLY BE RECOVERED AS A BYPRODUCT ALTHOUGH IT PROBABLY ONLY IN MINUTE QUANTITIES IN THE CLEVELANDITE. DATE OF COMMENTS 1975. |
