"On lot 30, concession V, Ryerson township, broken rock from overgrown
workings consists of impure crystalline limestone containing grains of serpentine, scales of graphite, a few specks of pyrrhotite, and bands of hornblende gneiss. Local inhabitants report some of this rock was teamed to Rosseau about 1890."

Access: The deposit is located 2 kilometres southwest of Starrat, 200
metres north of the intersection of the Bourdeau-Harrison Lake Road and the road leading west from Starrat.

History: Workings consist of 2 trenches, four pits and l water filled
