Area with the largest known Mn deposit in North America.
Supergene Mn ore was mined in several places.
The Mn carbonate mineralization is hosted by a finely laminated Upper Jurassic marine sediments that form the base of the Chipoco facies of the Taman Formation (Kimmeridgian). Manganese enrichment occurs over a total stratigraphic thickness of about 50 m, and a length of over 50 km along strike.
