Read More2008-11-26 The sulfide-poor “oxidized” zinc ore (up to 50 wt.% Zn; 250 to 300 ppm Ge) is a fine-grained, often friable, alteration product of the sulfide ore and associated limestone and breccia host. While some areas are dominated by carbonates and sulfates, others are enriched in silicates such as hemimorphite and willemite.

Read MoreThere, lead ore, primarily galena (lead sulphide, PbS), and zinc ore, primarily sphalerite (zinc sulphide, ZnS, also called "jack," blende, or "resin jack"), occur in subsurface rock formations and are dug in shallow or deep mines. The Oklahoma mines tended to be
Read MoreStructure. Type: L Description: In the mine area, three prominent sets of nearly vertical faults have been mapped, trending north-northeast, east-northeast, and northwest. The north-northeast set parallels the present range front, a conspicuous topographic lineament which corresponds to the main ore trend, the major fold axes, and the bonanza silver veins of the Treasure Hill mine.

A potential 4 million tons above the 1300 level in the Defiance-Essex-Thompson breccias pipe system is another substantial target.
Read MoreZinc is a bluish-white, lustrous metal with the chemical symbol Zn. Its main ore mineral is sphalerite (ZnS). Some of its uses are for galvanizing (plating thin layers of zinc onto iron or steel to protect from corrosion), production of brass (combination of zinc and copper), and coloring in rubber and paint.
