Premier Location
The Klondike Hollow Project 004 Lode claim is located over several large surface dozer cuts that expose mineralized veins systems near surface. With convenient access from Saguache and on the Forest Service road system, this claim is perfect for a small mining/prospecting operation.
Overview
O
Access is great and traffic is very minimal due to the lack of continuous loop road infrastructure. This lack of high traffic access has been able to preserve this mine thru the years upon its premature closure.
Veins structures are easily delineated and high quality samples can be found easily.
Camping
Camping is allowed in the area for up to 14 days continuous.
Access
10.5 miles from the town of Saguache.
With no thru access the claim has minimal traffic and has largely been sheltered for years by the high elevation, short mining season, and lack of continuous loop road infrastructure.
History
The Ford Creek/Bonita Hill area was primarily developed for its lode gold and silver sources. The lode mines are extensive with numerous adits, shafts, and trenches dug and developed upstream and on all side of this lode claim.
The lode mines were so rich that a small prospectors tent/cabin boom town sprung up nearby the mines claim called Spook City, old remnants of the town are still visible to this day.
Geology
Local alteration of early barren stage of alteration by fumarolic or acid hot spring activity resulted in intense silification, wall rock replacement by jasper and alteration products of hematite, diaspore, alunite, barite, zunyite, rutile, and kaolin minerals.
Later mineralization stage by alkaline or neutral solutions deposited ore and gangue and caused micaceous alteration (sericite and chlorite) and calcite, quartz, and pyrite.
