Deposit of Orbicular Gabbro Diorite. Located in an old quarry on the Cooleemee Plantation property (1800 acres). At present permanently conserved by the Land Trust for Central North Carolina in 1996. The Plantation is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Property was bought in 11/2015 by Spurgeon H. Foster Jr. Wards Natural Science sold a lot of these specimens in their rock collections for universities and public schools. At present off limits for collecting.
