Report: Midnight Two quartz-pyrite veins striking N18W in Archean gneiss were examined by O'Neill and others (1983). One is .5 feet thick and 1000 feet long; the other is .7-1.5 feet thick and exposed for only 60 feet. A select stockpile sample ran an impressive 4.1 oz/ton gold and 2.8 oz/ton silver, but several chip samples across the vein outcrop contained only a trace to .126 oz/ton gold. The 4 adits, 30 to 100 feet long, and all currently dry and caved.
