Deposit: Two unpatented claims owned by r. Winkler in 1937, at which time development consisted of a 30-foot inclined shaft, 2 adits, and several open cuts. ; info.src : 1 pub lit; 2 unpub rept; 3 field observ merged with m232707 and m030030, which have been deleted. Scheelite is irregularly distributed in the quartz veins and average about 3 feet wide. Tungsten content is .3 to 13 % wo3.; model name could also be: W skarn.
Deposit type: Polymetallic veins
Development: Relocated by pasch in 1942, mined from two inclines sunk by hand about 30 feet deep on quartz veins in granodiorite, along and near the contact with limestone. 26 tons of ore were shipped to the metals reserve co.
Geology: Scheelite occurs with molybdenite in the veins which cut granodiorite along and near contact with limestone.
