Geological Summary |
Mt. Roberts Group (Pensylvanian to Permian) sedimentary rocks and greenstone are intruded by (Jurassic) Nelson Batholith biotite monzonite and (Tertiary) Coryell Batholith syenite and pulaskite. Rocks near the old workings consist of conformable limestones, argillite, and greenstone altered to silicified limy sediments, crystalline limy sediments and greenstone. Auriferous and argentiferous pyrite and pyrrhotite occur in discontinuous lenses along a jasperoidal-limestone horizon for over 500 metres.
