Sheeted and stockwork quartz veins in recrystalized, host-rock Triassic limestone at Jeep Mine, on a roadside cut near the collar for the first drill hole in the drill program planned for this spring. Pervasive retrograde alteration of scheelite (W) and deep red garnet to pale grey clay-carbonate-micaceous assemblages is evident along vein margins, as are iron oxide clots after sulfide grains in vein interiors. Sheeted veins and quartz monzonite dykes strike for approximately 2,100 m to the east from this location; the large, rooted, co-spatial conductivity - IP chargeability anomaly at Jeep Mine is the target for the planned drilling as the potential sulfide center of the large-footprint Cretaceous porphyry-skarn system exposed on surface at New Boston.
