Ultramafic intrusion within Archean gneiss. An underground mine exploits a vertically dipping, βΌ2 m wide Au-bearing quartz-carbonate vein and its splays hosted by gneiss, amphibolite, and carbonaceous slate. The vein system contains trace amounts of native gold in addition to pyrite, chalcopyrite, and galena. The mine operation produces ore at an average grade of βΌ10 g/t Au.
