Work History
Staked as Birr cl (Y13021) in Jun/66 by Owen Woods and restaked as Bee cl (Y22636) in Feb/68 by Spartan EL, which performed hand trenching later in the year. Restaked as Cee cl (YA50307) in Feb/80 by Silver Sceptre ML.
Capsule Geology
This showing consists of pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and gillespite in a small skarn zone developed in Ordovician-Devonian(?) sedimentary rocks at the margin of a small stock. Barite veins are also present near the contact.
