Commodity: Parker estimated 1480 tons of 2.3 units wo3/ton ore reserves in about 1935.
Deposit: Scheelite occurs in the quartz vein As large orange-brown crystals up to several inches across. Vein parallels dike.
Development: First worked for gold, unsuccessfully. Inactive until 1927-1928, when scheelite was identified.
