pockets, stringers, or irregular masses. In one place three of
these have been minced out and the total production was only a
few tons. In some places widths of 3 to 6 fect arc observable,
but most of the bodies are lonticular and some of the widest are
perhaps only 10 to 50 feet long. The sizes of the deposits
appear to be related to the sizes of the volcanic masses in which
they occur. Many of the deposits are approximately horizontal
and are related to the main shear zone. Stringers can be traced
in places directly to the shear zone and it woulc appear that
solutions moving along this zone left it to enter the small
fractures along its sides.
Some very rich pockets have been found. It is reported

that 200 ounces of gold was secured from one small lens and 35
ounces from two other small pockets. Some was so rich that the
gold was mortared out of the quartz. On the average, however,
the gold assay are reported to have been less than 0.5 ounce a

occurs in a shear zone in a dark phase of the albite-rich
intrusives. The zone strikes north 45 degrees cast and dips south
at an angle of 70 degrées. It runs directly up the slope and is
traccable for over 800 feet. Beyonc this length exposures dowr
the slope and workings up the slope show that the zone cither

does not continue or is poorly ceveloped. At a central adit it

has a maximum width of 10 feet, but is mainly 5 to 6 feet wide.
Above and below the central adit it narrows, but maintains a
width of more than 2 fect and is well defined for a distance o

400 feot up the slope to an upper acit, and for a distance of
