Agency: NF Region District: R1 Ranger District: LIBBY Forest Service Tract: Watershed Code: 17010102 Forest or Resource Area: KOOTENAI Owner: N Impact: Report: This mine was considered active in 1998. In 1948, Gibson described a 300-foot long adit and Johns (1970) describes a 700-foot long adit, presumably the same adit. When visited on 08/19/98, no activity was noted. Two shallow "beginnings" of adits (one used for storage) and two other open adits were noted at a large open flat cut. The upper adit's portal was locked; the lower one was open but only extended back 35 feet. A spring with small discharge is captured as a water source but is not near the waste dumps. A locked "powder house" was also located on the property. Gibson (1948) described a 7-inch to 18-inch quartz vein in the Ravalli Formation's sandy or shaley argillites. Minerals include pyrite, galena, and iron oxide with lesser pyromorphite and disseminated pyrrhotite. |
