Annual report . ng considerable visible deposit appears to end. or pass into stringers, immediately east of the shaft. 1920 West Shiningtree Gold Area 49 but the vein can be traced intermittently to the west for about feet, exceptwhere it is intruded by narrow dikes of diabase or felsite. The wall rocks are pillowlavas altered to hornblende, chlorite and carbonate schists. The deposit comprisesa quartz vein from one to three feet wide, with some stringers carrying gold onboth the hanging wall and fuotwall. Numerous showings of gold occur along thesurface of the vein for 100 feet or so to the west of the shaft. Quite coarsegold came from a pit 275 feet west of the shaft. There is no trouble inpicking gold samples from various parts of the dump. A grab sample from thedumj) yielded $() gold per ton. The visible gold invariably occurs with tale infractures in the quartz. Other minerals present in these seams arepyrite, dark calcite, hornblende, tourmaline and occasionally Shaft on the Hohliiiu dcpusit, Scptcnilier, ]!tl9.

The deposit consists of numerous parallel quartzstringers, up to four inches and occasionally one foot in width, in ampliibolite orhornblende schist. The deposit is several feet wide, and has been trenched forabout 200 feet in a northeast-southwest direction. Certain parallel layers of schistcontain an abundance of crystallized pyrite. The quartz is of a white, nearly trans-parent type, and contains a little copper pyrites and talc and gold in a few , at an angle of about 70° to the southeast, has bee
