Caption: | Map showing the barytes veins at the Gass Water mines six miles east 12 degrees north of Cumnock, Ayrshire. |
Description: | The map shows the location of the Gass Water barytes veins in relation to the geology of the area. There are four sub-parallel veins that have been worked trending west-north-west to east-south-east. They are the Main Vein (or East Vein), the West Vein, the Quarry Vein and the No. 2 South Mine Vein as well as three short cross-cut veins. The workings extend intermittently along the veins for one and two-third miles. The width of the spar in the stopes has been very variable though locally the barytes has formed extensive sheets, particularly the Main Vein which reaches widths of 10 to 25 feet. |
