Location: These prospects are scattered for about a mile along an east-west trend; their midpoint is about 0.4 mile south-southwest of hill 2221 and about 0.5 mile west-southwest of the center of section 35, T. 77 S., R. 88 E.
Geology: The only evidence for these prospects is that they are shown on an old, small-scale map by Wright and Wright (1908, figure 18). Hedderly-Smith (1999 [Inventory]) refers to them in passing in describing geochemical anomalies in the area. The rocks in the area are schist and marble of the Wales Group of Late Proterozoic and Cambrian age (Eberlein and others, 1983; Brew, 1996).
Workings: Unknown.
