Occurrence No. 7 was found by Hsu (1973) as a barite location and then recognized as a lead occurrence by R. C. Smith, II by following up on Hsu's geochemical data. It is located in tectonically brecciated Tuscarora Formation sandstone near the upper end of a scree slope on the northeast side of Lamb's Gap. There may have been limited underground workings in the area. Other occurrences in the general area were found by David C. Herrick and M. Dennis Krohn.
