Agency: NF Region District: R1 Ranger District: JEFFERSON Forest Service Tract: Watershed Code: 10020005 Forest or Resource Area: DEERLODGE Owner: M Impact: L Report: The dominant mine in the area is the Ohio Mine, located near the top of the ridge between Hellroaring Canyon and Hulbert Creek. Although several adits and shafts area present, only one site had a water discharge. Soil impact is restricted to the small dumps associated with the workings and the ore bin. No sulfides were observed in any of the disturbed areas. Samples will be collected as per the MBMG-USFS Quality Assurance Plan and the MBMG Standard Field Operating Procedures. JOHS10L: Located at the head of Hellroaring Canyon. It is uncertain whether this is a caved adit or a developed spring. The sample will be analyzed for Dissolved Metals and Total Recoverable Metals. Discharge will be measured by means of a pipe-dam-bucket and stopwatch. Ohio The Ohio was examined in detail by Cather and Linne (1983). In the vicinity, sill-like porphyritic intrusions interfinger with lower Paleozoic sediments. The igneous rock may have been localized by thrust faults. At the mine, mineralization occurs in limestone, shale, and quartzite between two sill-like intrusions. Metal values are found mainly in NE-trending shear and breccia zones in quartz-pyrite veins from .5 to 15 feet thick. A small skarn containing diopside and quartz also occurs at a limestone-porphyry contact. The porphyritic sills contain disseminated pyrite and feldspars altered to kaolinite, but a sample (JMOH-1) from one such mineralized igneous body a mile north of the mine had only 0.008 oz/ton gold, 0.22 oz/ton silver, 0.013% copper, 0.008% lead, and 0.009% zinc. Sixteen samples taken by Cather and Linne (1983) at the mine ranged up to .414 oz/ton gold and 5.8 oz/ton silver. However, they felt that none of the structures were well enough exposed to allow estimation of resources. The mine operated from 1938 until 1943 and produced 1,538 oz of gold and 2,722 oz of silver. Workings consist of two caved shafts, 2 caved adits, and an open pit 70 feet in diameter. Recent exploration drilling has apparently taken place. Water emerging from a flooded shaft mapped by Cather and Linne (1983) is probably really a natural spring developed as the mine's water supply, but we sampled it anyway. |
