| Deposit | WORKINGS ARE ALONG IRREGULAR GOSSAN-LIKE HIGHLY IRON-STAINED FISSURES IN LIMESTONE. THE VEINS ARE COMMONLY POROUS AND HIGHLY OXIDIZED WITH LITTLE VISIBLE MINERALIZATION. THE LIMESTONE ZONE FORMS AN E-W TREND BISECTING CHALK MOUNTAIN, AND EXCEPT FOR A MINOR FELSITE CONTACT ON THE WEST END, IT IS IN CONTINUOUS CONTACT WITH TRIASSIC DOLOMITE OVER ITS ENTIRE EXPOSED MARGIN. SOME OF THE EXPOSED VEINS ARE ALONG THE MARGIN OF THE CONTACT ZONE. |
