An intense program of stripping, trenching, geology and approximately 40,000 feet of diamond drilling was completed between 1953 and 1957 resulting in the delineation of a body of fluorite, yellow mica, uraniferous thorianite, uranothorite, chondrodite and monazite within a calcareous marble.
The main primary U-Th minerals identified are uranothorianite and uranothorite, and there is some secondary uranium (uranophane and gummite).
