Geology
AlterationThe intrusive at the surface is moderately to strongly silicified, locally bleached, and iron stained. The schist country rock is strongly silicified at the intrusive contact. Downhole, the sill is cut by sparse hairline quartz veinlets. In the shear zone, intrusive fragments are highly silicified and locally altered to clay (Dashevsky, 1993).
