Oxford pegmatite field.
Plumbago Mt.
Granite pegmatite.

At the base of Summit Ridge to the north of Dunton Quarry on Hall's Ridge. Opened about 1952 for beryl. Possibly the largest beryl producer in the state, probably exceeding the Bumpus Quarry, although records are probably inaccurate due to the secrecy associated with beryl production in general. Land currently owned by Plumbago Timber and Quarries LLC, which permitted use of new mineral discovery information to appear on Mindat.
