A W occurrence/group of claims located on the western slope of Boner Canyon, W of the Williams Camp. An excerpt of Wilson's description of the Williams vein is provided to present the probable minerals in the veins on the Phillips claims, as alluded to be Wilson.
DEPOSITS ON WESTERN SLOPE
On the western slope of the ridge, opposite the Williams mine, tungsten-bearing veins mineralogically similar to the Williams occur on several claims which are accessible by trail. Most of them have produced a little tungsten ore from limited, shallow workings.
Bordering the Williams group on the northwest is the Louise group, held by H. R. Phillips. West of the Louise group are claims held by H. W. Berger and H. R. Phillips.

It (the Williams vein) consists of coarse-grained, glassy, gray quartz, locally with intergrowths of pale-green muscovite which forms fine-grained scaly masses adjacent to the vein walls and coarse rosettes within the vein. Wolframite and relatively sparse scheelite occur as fine-grained to coarse particles and aggregates associated with this muscovite, particularly adjacent to the hanging wall.
