Lithology Comments

Nov 03, 2010 (A Wilson) - The occurrence is associated with a strongly foliated, sericitized and carbonatized quartz feldspar porphyry. The occurrence appears to be related to conjugate shear zones related to strong alteration in an area where there is a sharp change in the orientation of the granodiorite contact.
