Oct 11, 2011 (A Wilson) - Mineralization is hosted within a N80E striking vein. The veins range from 1 to 10 inches in width but averages about 4 inches. The vein material may be banded with zones of coarse carbonate on each side of the mineralization. Approximately 22 chains north of the copper prospect, a shaft was sunk on two veins trending N45-75W.
