Details: I saw a few ebay items from this location so I thought I'd add it. The mineral on ebay was pyrophyllite. I do not know if this is a public or private mine. I don't know if it has a pile or is inaccessible. It has been known for more than 100 years. Look at the mindat link to see more information about the minerals there and host rock.
Directions: Check out the GPS placemark. That is all of the information I have.
