Sn-Ag veins hosted in red argillaceous sandstone.

Note: Vivianite crystals were discovered a few hundred meters away on June 20th 2003, and three new adits have been dug exclusively for vivianite specimen mining, but these are on the neighboring Tomokoni mine (qv) property, although many dealer labels erroneously list it as Canutillos.
