Köppen climate type:
An iron formation occurs in a ridge trending in a general northwest-southeast direction and ranges in width from 300 to 1000 feet. Outcrops of iron formation occur as shoals in Kokoko Lake. The iron formation consists of alternating bands of magnetite, silica and jasper. There are lenses in which magnetite is interbedded with only jasper, and others in which magnetite is interbedded only with fine-grained quartz or chert. The banding ranges in thickness from very fine to 2 inches, and averages about 1/4-1/2 inch. The iron formation is locally brecciated.
