Show McLEASE REPORTS OX ANTELOPE ACTIVITIES 'The Salt Lake Herald-Republican says: "Albert McLease, superintendent of the East Antelope mine of Beaver county, who was in town Saturday, said that the region was one of great activity, there being no fewer than nine properties now actively operating. operat-ing. These include the Antelope Star, the Keno, a property recently acquired acquir-ed by Jesse Knight and his associates the Beaver Range Mines and the So. Antelope. "The East Antelope, which joins the Keno on the south and east, is, said Superintendent McLease, operating operat-ing with a full force, driving three drifts on the two north-south fissures iu addition to sinking a double-compartment shaft. "The drifts will bring the. miners under the high grade ore that shows on the surface and will afford backs of about 300 feet. Such good progress pro-gress is being made that it is expected expect-ed the ore will be reached in the west dritt not later than February 1. "The Keno, said Mr. McLease, has from eight to nine feet of ore on the surface and is pushing development work. The showing of ore in the Antelope Star is growing better with every shift and the prediction made by the management that this property will soon be in the list of regular shippers appears to be basel upon the existing facts." |
