GUID (UUID V4):

In hornblende gneiss and schist.

Work was begun on this property in 1883, and the opening known as the Jeanette pit was commenced by Mr. Coe of Madoc, who operated the property under lease. Subsequently a number of openings were made by the Hamilton Steel and Iron Company, who acquired the lease and carried on mining operations for a short time. The total amount of ore shipped from the property between 1891 - 1903 was reported by Mr. T. B. Caldwell to be 10,000 tons.
