Pre-1927: exploration work included stripping and an adit not more than 7.5 m long.
The vein consists of coarsely crystalline calcite and barite with green fluorite in discontinuous bands. The vein is 2 - 3 feet wide and
parallel stringers occur within 2 feet of the walls of the main vein. In
the central part of the vein irregular patches and vug linings of well
terminated white and amethystine quartz occur. Barite is the most abundant
mineral constituent throughout the greater part of the vein.
