Comments on the geologic information

  • GEOL.DESC: MANGANESE OXIDE OCCURS AS STAINS, COATINGS, FILLINGS, AND SOME PENETRATIONS IN MANGANIFEROUS RED CHERT. CHERT ORE BODY IS 20 FT. THICK AND 50 TO 70 FT. LONG. GREENSTONE SEPARATES THIS FROM ANOTHER SMALL OUTCROP 100 FT. TO THE S. CHERT STRIKES N - S, DIPS 50 E., AND IS BORDERED ON THE W. BY WHITE CHERT STRIKING N 25 E AND DIPPING 40 E. ROCKS SURROUNDING CHERT ARE MAINLY GREENSTONE. SOME NEOTOCITE OR BEMENTITE MAY BE PRESENT.
