| Deposit | WORKINGS FOLLOW IRON-STAINED, BRECCIATED VEIN SYSTEMS WITH HIGHLY IRREGULAR DIPS AND STRIKES. THEY ARE RELATIVELY SMALL WITH VERY LITTLE ROOM TO DEVELOP WITHOUT DROPPING BELOW THE RIDGE. SAMPLE 2966 WAS SELECTED FROM SULFIDE-BEARING QUARTZ VEIN IN ADIT AND ON DUMP. SAMPLE 2967 WAS FROM A SMALL QUARTZ VEIN/GOSSAN OUTCROP-VERY OXIDIZED, VUGGY, PARTLY BRECCIATED. |
