Morrisville Prospect - Lamoille, VT

Section

What kind of site this is

Drawn as a mineral occurrence: a place where a geologist noted the mineral, with no mining recorded. The ore color stands for lead, barium-barite, zinc. Federal records note the kind of operation and its status, not its depth or layout, so this is a typical example rather than a survey of this site.
