Chunks of material occurring abundantly scattered over the hill south of the Kleinschmidt grade on the first ridge east of Snake Canyon consist of massive fine-grained epidote forming a dense rock. Specimens from the Fidelity claims consist of pale green imperfect prisms and coarse fibrous masses with quartz and calcite and of radiating light pistachio-green prisms in white quartz. One lot from the Queen mine dump consists of bright pistachio- green columnar masses in garnet and a second lot consists of im- perfectly crystallized light to dark green masses with well crystallized brown garnet. Specimens from the Copper Boy mine consist of masses of large blackish-green crystals deformed by mutual interference. Occasion- ally good terminations project into chrysocolla filled cavities. The.
