Agency: NF Region District: R1 Ranger District: JEFFERSON Forest Service Tract: Watershed Code: 10020006 Forest or Resource Area: DEERLODGE Owner: N Impact: Report: Lady Leith (Butte and Philadelphia) Several short workings, totaling about 900 feet in length and including 5 caved adits, 1 open adit, and 2 caved shafts, are scattered across national forest lands. Two caved adits discharge water. Approximately 1,800 tons of dump material are associated with the workings; most of this is altered quartz monzonite with quartz, sericite, and pyrite alteration products. Heavy vegetation obscures the bedrock geology, but Ruppel (1963) describes the property as having several N80-85W 65NE trending veins up to 10 feet thick with minor (Knopf,1913) quartz, pyrite, galena, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, chalcocite, tourmaline, siderite, and barite. Numerous cat cuts expose veins intermittently for over 1,000 feet to the west of the Lady Leith. A select sample of vein material (JJLL-1) from the dump contained 0.182 oz/ton Au, 11.4 oz/ton Ag, 0.42% Cu, 3.10% Pb, and 0.2% zinc. The mine was worked sporadically from 1890 to 1911, but there was no production (Pardee and Schrader, 1933). |
