This pit is located further east and down slope from the current mining operations at Gumigil. It was previously operated by Kajar Pty Ltd |
|
and is now owned by Viper Resources Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of Cobra Resources NL. |
|
Chrysoprase has been produced locally from the mid 1960's. It commonly occurs as boudins in the clay-serpentinite shears above the |
|
basal magnesite bearing shear. The chrysoprase intersected by drilling varied from pale to a rich dark green colour. |
