Southwest opening; Buckwheat Mine


The Buckwheat Open Cut or Pit is an open working situated at the southern "keel" of the northward-plunging syncline hosting the southern Franklin orebody.

It was undertaken following the Great Consolidation of 1897 of smaller mines into one Franklin Mine.

During 1897-1902, the pit excavated all the barren rock between and including the southernmost west and east limbs of the folded orebody northward as far as the east-west-oriented lamprophyre (see Vonderheide (2021), called camptonite in older literature) dike.

The pit obliterated earlier limited workings, both open and underground, such as the Weights & Measures pit on the west limb, the Southwest Opening and the Black Hole at the southern nose, and the southern half of the Buckwheat/Taylor Mine on the east limb.

Other smaller features such as the Greer Opening, the Tunnel Opening, the #2 Opening, the #3 Opening, the #1 Shaft, the #2 Shaft, the #3 Shaft, the Wilson Shaft and the Old Shaft were also obliterated by the pit or subsequent working. See Figure 3-8 and 3-17 in Dunn (1995) for detailed maps.

The Buckwheat Pit incorporates Zn and Fe ore veins, Franklin Marble, late Ordovician lamprophyre dike rock, plus a vein-like body of vuggy dolomite (Buckwheat Dolomite Marble) of apparent Paleozoic age. All of these geological features contributed to the diverse mineralogy of this locality.

The complete list of mineral species occurring within this district, as well as the official boundaries of the district, can be found under the locality file for "Franklin Mining District".
