A former underground Au-Ag-Cu-Pb mine. Produced 1927-1937.
Mineralization is a vein deposit with a tabular ore body. Ore control was faulting, shearing, igneous activity (especially dike emplacement). Ore concentration was oxidation at near surface. Alteration was sericite and clay.
Area structures include foliation in Proterozoic rocks that trends N20E. Mineralization is in breccia pipes and dike-related veins.
