Nov 29, 2012 (A Wilson) - The main mineralized zone occurs within a dark green, recrystallized chloritic rock that lies between two felsic pyroclastic units (rhyodacitic tuff and rhyodacitic tuff breccia). A second mineralized zone lies stratigraphically below the main zone and is hosted within the rhyodacitic tuff-breccia unit.
