Note

The ore face is exposed and the positions of the two ore "beds" are marked by crutches. The left crutch is along the good ore, the right is along the poor ore. Dump at left includes large chunks of low grade ore. The dump lies on top of old Simon-Coles drift (1920). At cross in upper right hand corner there is an old untimbered drift on black-stained red shale that extends some distance eastward. A poor crop of blocky red shale is just east of this drift.
