A former small surface Mica-Quartz-Beryl-Feldspar mine located in the SW ¼ & NE ¼ sec. 23, T.14S., R.28E.
Mineralization is comprised of lensing quartz-pegmatite masses in granitic dikes and fracture coatings along the contact of Precambrian gneiss with porphyritic granite.
Workings are open cuts. Some lots of hand-sorted beryl were sold in the late 1950's. Assay values: 0.18-2.6% BeO.
