Köppen climate type:
A gold-bearing vein located in the northern border area of secs. 5 & 6, T19N, R20W, G&SRM, NW of Oatman. This feature is not listed in the USGS MRDS database.
NOTE: Although Ransome states that a high-grade ore shoot was stoped from this vein, a subsidiary vein (spur) of the Hardy vein, Plate 1 does not attribute any mine working to these features, nor are any close enough to reasonably expect their being worked from a mine at a nearby location.
