Deposit: Fluorspar occurs in a vein in a brecciated zone in basalt and seyenite. The mineralized zone reaches a maximum thickness of 5 ft, and fluorspar forms lenses and veinlets and occurs As coatings on breccia fragments or As granular cementing material. About 650 ft SSE of the eighty-five shaft an old shaft marks the site of a former lead mine. The dump contained considerable fluorite. ; info.src : 1 pub lit
