In places, the fracture is poorly defined, in others, quartz is fractured, indicating a recent movement. The veins are associated with felsic dikes. Dikes could be another phase of main granite body. A mafic dike of variable thickness N20E is the northern limit of the ore. Local rocks include Mesozoic granitic rocks, unit 2 (Peninsular Ranges) and/or pre-Cenozoic granitic and metamorphic rocks undivided.
Workings include underground openings comprised of a 350 feet (ca. 107 m) deep shaft with drifts on the 95 feet (ca. 29 m) and 166 feet (ca. 51 m) levels, driven into the veins.
