Report: This location is desscribed in the U. S. Geological Society Bulletin 1501 (Cabinet Mountains, Montana) as consisting of a 20 foot adit and two prospect pits. It was not visited because of its remote location and the small chance of any discharge. It was located between the Burke Formation to the west and the Wallace Formation to the east. The occurrence was associated with the Rock Lake fault, in pods and lenses of quartz veins. A chip sample by the USGS assayed 0.1 opt Au, 5.0 opt Ag, and 0.45% Cu.
