Report: Jefferson According to Emmons and Calkins (1913), the Jefferson produced low grade copper-lead ore from a quartz-pyrite-copper carbonate vein from two tunnels. However this is adjacent and similar to the Mayflower, which contains only abundant copper. The 5-10 foot thick vein appears concordant with the enclosing Mission Canyon formation at N70W 60SW.
