A former gold mine. The mill is currently being used to process ore fron Richmont Mines Island Gold Mine.
The orebody was hosted by intensely sheared and altered mafic rocks interpreted either as metavolcanic flows or metaintrusive rocks. Thin units of intermediate to felsic tuff may locally be present within the stratigraphy. The showings consist of quartz veins or silicification within ductile shear zones with associated metasomatism. The orebody is cross cut by a 4 metre wide diabase dike.
Mineralization consists of cherty blue-grey quartz veins containing potassium feldspar and sericite. Native gold occurs mainly as very fine-grained free gold, as fine individual specks and on the boundaries of fine-grained anhedral to subhedral pyrite grains.
