Located 9 kilometres north north-west of the 132 North Ni mine. The deposit is covered by soil. Serpentinized olivine, talc, tremolite. The mineralised zone is 10 metres above this, at the base of mottled olivine-talc-tremolite unit, 13 metres thick.

Medium grained pyrrhotite and pentlandite bearing breccia ore, forms a sharp layer 0.5 metres thick, at the centre of the disseminated mineralisation. Grades up to 15% Ni. Disseminated ore 4% Ni. Pyyrhotite dominates, with lesser pentlandite, intergrown with amphibolite rosettes, and granular olivine. Pyrrhotite forms fine grained aggregates.

The Mindat co-ordinates are approximate.
