Capsule
Work History
Staked as Josephine cl (7458) in Mar/07 near the Hobbs Lime Kiln. Restaked as New Era cl (15113) in Dec/26 by G. Farrar.
Restaked as a single Dan Mar claim (YA87917) in Jul/87 by D. Hermanutz.
Capsule Geology
A small, thrust fault-bounded body of serpentinite contains a minor amount of asbestos fibre. Length is mostly less then 1.5 mm but occasionally reaches 3 mm. The aeromagnetic maps show a small 200 gamma anomaly.
