Mineralization: Within the greisen, mineralization
is disseminated in patches of phengite and quartz and/or associated
with narrow, oxidized, iron-rich veins. Minerals identified include:
arsenopyrite, pyrite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, stannite, wittichenite,
cassiterite and covelite. Digenite resulted from the alteration
of chalcopyrite and sphalerite. High scintillometer readings were
recorded from the Discovery vein, the mineral was assumed to be
torbernite or metatorbenite (Ellsworth, 1950). The presence of autenite
was suggested by the existence of a green fluorescing mineral in
radioactive patches (O'Reilly, 1982). |
