Group of Claims
A Mn occurrence/group of 5 claims located SW of the Verdun and Powell groups. Owned by Gates & Brown.
This group of claims extends across a small hill which rises 200 feet above the surrounding detrital plain. The hill is composed of rhyolite. An arroyo at the NW end of the hill has exposed in its bed some flat-bedded gray sandstone overlain by detrital material. Manganese oxides occur in a brecciated zone in rhyolite, which strikes about N60W, and extends across the hill near its summit. The zone is poorly defined, and in it are widely spaced stringers of psilomelane that are too lean to mine.
