It Is impossible to' estimate H the extent of this ore body, but the Wkf 1 Indications are that tt will extend to H the surface, at least fifty feet above H , t tho present vback 'The stope is now H l twenty feet longhand" fifteen feet wide, HI 1 and Is being cxtendled in length. H Mohawk mine Instills mfcno the 354 H i sill has been considerably extended. H' , and has produced 13210 tons of ore, worth .?6G,0u0, or $50 per ton. And H i nearly 100 feet further into the foot-H foot-H wall another ore body was cut and seems to b efrom eight to- ten feet wide. One hundred feet of drifting has been done, on this shocjt, and has produced 430 tons of ore, "worth $3S 1 per ton. This' Is probably a branch . from the big ore body cut an the 354 1 sill. j Clermont In this mine the downward down-ward etxenslon of the 306 oro body j on the 600 lever (near Laguna) was ' cut by an intermediate .forty feet ver- ' tically under the 600-foot level. Not , enough work has been done to es- " 1 timate either tonnage onvaluo of this I 1 ore body. j , In the 750 north drift six feet of ' $15 ore has been cut. The face of the drift is still in ore. The indications, indica-tions, however, arc that it Is not a 1 very long shoot. Nothing of any Importance has bcn found In the Red Top, Grizzly t - r Boar or Laguna. j ! Tne mines as a whole are looking i well. The mill at tho present timo 't ' is crushing about 900 tons a day, nad 1 I : we have experienced no difficulty !' whatovor In supplying that amount of ore Tho Red Top and Combination mines are being operated on the day shift only and, with the exception of the Clermont, the mines are closed down every Sunday. j ' . |
