Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Mineralization is located within a fault zone in a Keweenawan diabase dike, which cuts an Early Precambrian granite - pegmatite complex. The fault zone is filled with quartz plus hematite and calcite in which a pitchblende vein is located. The mineralization consists of two pods, one 15 by 10 feet by 1.5 inches and another located with the fault zone is exposed over a length of 150 feet. (OGS 1983 MDC 25 P 45).
