Jan 12, 2012 (A Wilson) - On the claims visited the country rock is amphibolite or hybrid granite gneiss. These rocks strike N. 25-40° E., and dip 20 - 50° SE. Cutting these rocks are narrow sills or dikes of granite pegmatite which are slightly radioactive. On the north side of the highway about 4 miles east of the west gate a coarse granite pegmatite dike, with an exposed width of 1-10 feet, outcrops for a length of 70 feet. It strikes N25E, and dips 50°W. The country rock is a biotite amphibolite which strikes N40E and dips 50°SE.
