EAST PART OF THE RAYMOND PEAK ROADLESS AREA, CALIFORNIA.
The east part of the Raymond Peak Roadless Area, Alpine County, California encompasses about 58 sq mi along the crest and eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada. Based on a mineral survey there are demonstrated silver-gold resources at five properties within a large area of probable silver-gold potential in the east part of the area. A small area with probable mineral-resource potential for skarn-type tungsten resources occurs at the north end of the roadless area. The geologic setting precludes the presence of fossil fuels and no other energy resources were identified in the study.
