MEIKLE MINE MILLERITE

August 2003 update

The nature of Millerite is acicular or "hair like". This is a  new North American occurrence of Millerite, 

and as good if not better than most. There is a short article is out in the March/April issue of Rocks & Minerals.

It will describe the discovery, recovery and geology of the Millerite from this already famous locality.

The last good chance for more pockets of millerite have been exhausted. The remaining stope that may have held more millerite has been blasted through.
