The three type locality minerals orthominasragrite, anorthominasragrite and bobjonesite were found in a coal-clad, pyritiferous silicified tree in the Triassic age Shinarump conglomerate in the North Mesa Mine.

The main North Mesa mine is accessed by the No. 1, No. 2, No. 5, and No. 7 adits. However, the workings have collapsed in many areas, making it no longer possible to access certain areas of the workings.

The North Mesa 9 and 10 mines were not connected to any of the other mines, and can each be considered as separate from the main North Mesa mine.
