Show encouraging OUTLOOK IN DINERO leadville colo democrat unexpected progress was made in the work on the dinero tunnel on sugar loaf mountain during the month of may and it the same speed is maintained in driving the hore bore during the next two months the dinero vein should be reached some time during the last two weeks in august superintendent john harrison reported last night that feet were cut last month and that the work was proceeding with the same speed at the present time the tunnel is now in the hill a distance of 2670 feet and feet remain yet to be cut we are not cutting any ore said mr harrison last night but conditions are mighty favorable and I 1 be surprised to cut a vein any day now the dinero shaft was cut over feet back of where we are working now and the vein encountered at that time was pitching toward the mouth of our tunnel it is highly probable that it extended in that direction far enough to be right in the path of our work but on the other hand we may inay not strike the vein after we reach the point that is vertical with the old shaft in that event we will have to drift to find the vein but I 1 am sure that we will find it and that we will find others too before we work much longer the water in the tunnel is not interfering with the work at the present time frequently small basins are encountered but these are soon drained and also serve to drain other parts of the territory to be covered As a whole the work just now is very encouraging |
