Geology:
The property is underlain by mafic and intermediate metavolcanics including pillowed lavas, tuff and agglomerates. The vein strikes N55° E and dips 20-80°SE and is cut near its west end by a lamprophyre dike. The vein has a length of approximately 600 feet but the vein has been cross cut by a left-hand fault of approximately 60 feet displacement.
