Email note from Cliff
Jackson <rockguy1@cox.net> Yellow Pine…Needs high clearness But not 4X4 Ruth Mine…..Car access Prairie Flower… Needs high clearness But not 4X4 Milford No. 2…4X4 only. All of these mines have Hydrozincite, some have red Calcite and Prairie Flower and Milford No. 2 have Willemite. There are also several unnamed mine dumps on the way in, that I have not looked at in the dark. Willemite One sample was found at Prairie Flower. It looks like all the green FL Willemite I have seen. No other FL on sample. The other was found at Milford Mine. Willemite on one section with Hydrozincite on the other section. Depending on who shows up and what kind of vehicles we could go to the Addison mine which has FL yellow Willemite. Requires 4X4 to get to it. (Class 3+ 4X4 road) |
