Report: Sunrise BE000725 There are two Sunrise mines in the MILS database, presumably both the same. Geach, 1972 reports two adits; one trending N60oW and one trending N25oE. Loen and Pearson (1989) place the geologic setting as Paleozoic undifferentiated intruded by a northeast-trending Cretaceous diorite dike. The field visit did not identify any hazards at this site. The Sunrise is a patented claim. There is no record of production though Geach (1972) reports 0.57 opt Au, 0.50 opt Ag, and 0.17% Cu.
