Several more or less parallel quartz veins occur in an area underlain mainly by argillite and quartzite which have been intruded in places by granodiorite and granitic dikes. In most places the veins appear to be conformable with bedding which has an attitude of approximately 028 degrees/ 35 degrees East. The veins host minor galena, sphalerite and pyrite mineralization with low gold and silver values. Vein widths up to about two metres reported.
