These were in the NE 1/4 of the NE. 1/4 of section 6, township 41 N., 13 W. They were described by Schmidt in 1874. Galena was found loose here at the surface and also in crevices running SW.-NE., which connected with numerous chimneys and crevice . These contained galena in red and yellow clays. The enclosing limestone was fine-grained and somewhat altered and soft. No barite was found, though some calcite was associated with the galena. A parallel crevice was also discovered here and another at right angles to this.
