A Ag-V-Cu-Zn-Pb mine.

Mineralization is a fault zone that cuts granite and lavas and contains veinlets of manganoan calcite, finely crystalline fluorite, and vanadinite. The veins are banded and up to 1/4 inch wide with finely crystalline quartz and fluorite cut by bladed crystals of baryte and veinlets oc calcite.

Prospected by a short tunnel.
