Report: Bear Gulch Adit Cluster Four caved adits presumably explore small high grade gold-quartz veins similar to those at the nearby B & H. There are no outcrops in the area, but dump material indicates that the wallrock is comprised of Archean metamorphics and pegmatite, and alteration is weak. Vein consists of quartz and pyrite. Land ownership is mostly private. The lowest and largest adit has a small discharge, which immediately sinks into the ground.
