One open, hazardous shaft, approximately 35 ft deep was driven on the hillside above the lower workings. It is inclined approximately 65 to the west and the shear zone exposed in it trends N. 25 W. The opening is about 10 ft by 10 ft. There were also overgrown pits, trenches, and a collapsed adit at the site. The small drainage to the east had a small intermittent flow of water when visited 05/22/01. Mayerle (1983) described the geology as quartz lenses in argillites and quartzites. This report describes a caved 50-ft adit, a 35-ft deep shaft, 5 cuts, 1 trench and 2 pits. |
