Report: This site was screened out because the only reference was Marks' Bob Marshall Wilderness Study. The commodity was silver according to MILS. The accuracy was +/- 1 km. The only reference to this site is Marks (1978) when he described it as consisting of one caved adit driven along an unconformity in sandstone and carbonaceous shale. It was screened out because of the small nature of the deposit. Minerals associated with the occurrence are described by Marks (1978) only as "iron-rich" minerals. Some zinc was also found in the samples taken by Marks.
