Impact:
Report: Quote from E.C. Pattee, 1960...."The prospect is near the center of the batholith approximately 1,500 feet northwest of Pear Lake dam and 16 miles northwest of Apex by the Birch Creek road. Tungsten minerals have been reported to occur at the property, but none were observed. Float and three quartz veins in a small pit contain blebs of molybdenite. The veins are less than 5 inches wide. The deposit is in quartz monzonite. Most of the area is covered with glacial moraine." Pattee also lists this as three unpatented claims owned by C.P. MacKenzie of Dillon, MT with no WO3 production.
