Deposit ADIT ABOUT 50 FT LONG WITH ADJACENT DECLINE OF UNKNOWN EXTENT. AN IRREGULAR ZONE OF MINERALIZATION WITH ABUNDANT GALENA AND SPHALERITE, MINOR CHALCOPYRITE, MALACHITE, CHRYSOCOLLA. A SAMPLE FROM THE MINERALIZED ZONE ASSAYED 9.7% LEAD, 3.4% ZINC, 14.6 PPM SILVER, AND 110 PPM CADMIUM. COUNTRY ROCK IS QUARTZITE, SOME ALTERATION.
