Structure: Faults
Deposit: Crosscut adit was driven 300 ft in to and beneath the major nw-trending gold king group vein described by schrader (1947). The S 25 W heading would have crossed the fault and should have insersected some of the vein systems seen in the upper workings if they continued to depth, which they apparently do not. At about 160 ft, the fault zone was encountered, but contained only minor quartz stringers. A 55-ft long drift was driven along the hanging wall side of the shear on a N 80 W bearing, but it cut no vein structure; another minor drift from the face of the adit followed a small unproductive vein. Sample 3891 was selected from the small amount of quartz vein material found on the dump, representing minor stringers. No attempt was made to develop ore or to mine any of the showings. The veins seen in the upper workings appear to have pinched out at depth, and the major shear zone exposed by the adit at this location was without mineralization of any size. Discovery year: early 1900's
Development: These workings do not appear to have been mined but were prospected in early 1900's. Staked in 1979 by erickson's group. No activity in 1986.
Ore(s): Large Shear Zone
