Geological report on the Coimadai antimony mine

The country rock of the Coimadai antimony orebodies is Lower Ordovician slate and sandstone, with northerly strike and steep westerly dip. It is intruded by narrow east-west striking pre-mineral porphyry dykes, which dip north and are displaced by or in places form the walls of the lode channels. The antimony lodes are lenticular ore-shoots in fault zones which show signs of intense crushing and shearing, the shoots being usually associated with fault intersections or branches. The workings are divided into two sections: No. 1, Draper's, in which the lode system strikes north-northwest and dips 45-55 degrees west, and No. 2, Bondison's, where the strike is east-northeast and the dip 60 degrees to the north. In No. 1 section most of the ore above the adit level has been extracted, but possibly 400 tons of the 5% Sb, ore have been developed below the level, and prospects of further ore are good. Gold values are much higher in No. 2 than in No. 1 section, but few assay data are available with regard to either antimony or gold content.
