Report: From Walker, D.D., 1960: "The Tommy prospect, on the west side of Silver Hill, is about one-half mile south of the Blackshirt. Workings include an old 10-foot pit sunk on a quartz vein containing silver mineralization, a narrow bulldozer cut west of the pit, and an area 60 by 80 feet from which the overburden has been stripped. A quartz-calcite vein, averaging 1 foot wide in the pit and stripped area, cuts across beds of marbleized Jefferson limestone and strikes N.54 degrees E., with a dip of 30 degrees NW. Scattered crystals of scheelite occur in the vein."
