Salerno claim


Largely unexplored, but apparently widespread occurrence of large clots of diopside and tremolite in marble, with some quartz. Good crystals occur in coarse calcite pods in the dioside/tremolite rock.

There are three reported deposits in the Salerno Claim, each within 200 metres of each other.
