Locality type:
KΓΆppen climate type:
Structure: Small Faults
Deposit: On the tempest fissure where intersected and offset by a later n10 W and a n50 W fissure in conjuction with the ore. In this deposit, most of the ore occurs between the walls of the fissure with very small minor replacement and bedded deposits. A shaft 80 ft west of the inman vein is on a n46 W fissure, nearly vertical, 10-18 inches wide, carrying oxidized copper ore.
Development: Reported to have produced several hundred tons of direct smelting ore high in cu and pe with about 10 oz/t ag, up to 15% cu
Ore(s): Fractures, Faults; The Tempest Fissure Where Intersected By A Later N10w Fissure
