Report: Ida May A flooded caved shaft with an extensive dump in a marsh mined a N80W zone of altered quartz monzonite cut by stringers of sphalerite and quartz (Becraft and others, 1963). The dump material is slightly anomalous in radioactivity. Because the property is on private land with no discharge, it was not sampled.
