An occurrence discovered by carborne scintillometer survey by Smith and Hoff (1984) yielded 100 ppm U, 700 ppm Cu, and 575 ppm Pb for a 65-cm channel sample cut perpendicular to bedding. The anomalous amount of Pb suggests the potential for micro lead minerals. The occurrence seems to be at the same level as the mineralogically interesting McCauley Prospect 22.
