Sphalerite, galena, pyrite, pyrrhotite and minor chalcopyrite occur within an unnamed Permo-Triassic formation along small chlori- tized seams in quartz veins within felsic schist. The vein is about 120 metres long, in a west direction. A 3.7 metre sample reportedly assayed 85.7 grams per tonne silver, 0.34 grams per tonne gold, 4.3 per cent lead, 2.82 per cent zinc and trace copper (Minister of Mines Annual Report 1929, page 75).
