A Au-Cu-Ag occurrence located in the NW¼ sec. 23, T2S, R23E, and/or the SE¼ sec. 18, T2S, R24E, SBM, 2.6 km (1.6 miles) SE of Riverside Mountain (coordinates of record), on Bureau of Land Management administered land (located claim). MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 10 - 100 meters.
NOTE: There are 2 USGS MRDS database files that are probably for the same locality. File #10164545 appears to be the more accurate and presents coordinates that place this locality on a mine shaft symbol in section 18, R24E.
Local rocks include pre-Cenozoic metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks undivided and/or Quaternary alluvium and marine deposits.
Workings include unspecified underground openings (the topo map reflects 1 shaft symbol at this point and 1 adit symbol about 200 meters WNW of it).
