Exploration History

1908, work conducted by Mr. Rogers. Open cut 30 m x 6 m x 1.8 m on a zone of barite, calcite, flourite mineralization as parrellel veins, not exceeding 0.9 m in width. It was observed that the ore was mixed intimately with the gange, making the concentration of the barite impracticable, and that there was not a large enough deposit to warrant further work, (DEMR/CANMET #570).
