Location: The Levutar prospect is at an elevation of about 1,450 feet, about 1.6 miles northeast of Pinnacle Peak. The prospect is 0.3 mile southeast of the center of sec. 31, T. 48 S., R. 59 E. It is MAS no. 0021140123 (U.S. Bureau of Land Management, 2002). The location is probably accurate within about a mile.
Geology: Johnson and Karl (1985) map the rocks in the area of this prospect as Triassic(?) greenstone and marble; a stock of Tertiary(?) granodiorite intrudes the greenstone. The rocks are cut by steeply-dipping, northwest-striking faults, including the regional-scale Border Ranges Fault, whose trace is about a mile southwest of the prospect. The only published information about this prospect is that it has been staked for an unspecified commodity (U.S. Bureau of Land Management, 2002).
Development Status: Undetermined.
