Discovered 1953 by Mr. Dick Hart. Owned by Silvia Vukoye, California (<1953-1962). Operated by Dick Hart, Adrion Skinner, and Scott Ellis (Sevier Minerals) (1953-). Operated by D. Hart and White, Arizona (1961). The USGS MRDS database stated accuracy for this locality is 500 meters.
Mineralization is a vein deposit hosted in Neoproterozoic schist, gneiss, and granite. The ore body strikes N15W and dips 42-45E at a width of 1.22 meters (4 feet). Mineralization includes secondary copper minerals. Alteration includes chloritization, sericitization and kaolinization. Local rocks include Middle Proterozoic granitic rocks and/or Early Tertiary to Late Cretaceous granitic rocks.
Workings include unspecified underground openings with a length of 304.8 meters.
