The primary ore mineral was pyrargyrite, and much of the ore ran 500-5,000 ounces of silver per ton. |
Silver in these samples are contained in the ruby silver minerals proustite and pyrargyrite, typically found in epithermal systems. |
Another less important Ag mineral is pyrargyrite, which was only abundant in the Silver King, Husky, Elsa and, particularly, the Lucky Queen mines. |
Hurst describes the vugs as containing gold, silver, polybasite, pyrargyrite, and tetrahedrite. |
Pyrargyrite was a dominant mineral, occurring locally in vuggy masses, in the Cortland mine, Gunnison County. |
Ore mineralization consists of free gold, electrum, and pyrargyrite. |
