Agency: NF Region District: R1 Ranger District: JEFFERSON Forest Service Tract: Watershed Code: 10020006 Forest or Resource Area: DEERLODGE Owner: M Impact: L Report: Ada The Ada mine consists of five caved adits and two caved shafts that explore a N72E 70NW vein of quartz, pyrite, sphalerite, galena, tetrahedrite, and chalcopyrite (Ruppel, 1963). The mine was most active from 1900-1902, and worked intermittently until 1907. Production was about 2000 tons of silver-lead ore mined from a single hanging wall shoot 20-30 feet thick and 80 feet long (Ruppel, 1963). This vein is presently exposed in the caved inclined shaft; a chip sample across the 5 foot width contained .024 oz/ton Au, 1.54 oz/ton Ag, .06% Cu, .19% Pb, and .11% Zn. Obviously this does not represent part of the high grade shoot. This vein is probably related to the same shear zone exposed at the Rocker and Rocker Extension mines to the east. A discharge issues from the main adit, which appears to be a crosscut to the vein with about 1,000 feet of underground workings. The dump is comprised of 1,500 tons of altered quartz monzonite containing .004 oz/ton Au, 3.75 oz/ton Ag, .057% Cu, .320% Pb, and .005% Zn. |
