Unnamed hill ('Hill 548 m S of Montaña Cerrada') west road GC-200 with quartz, chalcedony, opal, and some calcite scattered over the surface and in small cavities. This is most likely identical with a location mentioned by Mullis & Sigl (1982).
Note: The opal at this location is white and not transparent and covering chalcedony, which is often quite transparent and fluorescent in short-wave UV light.
