territory in a distance of 0 or more feet the heading should reach a point below that at which the ore was entered on the last january while the diamond drilling program started by the united states smelting smelling Sm elting company for the benefit of the central standard ground was discontinued some weeks ago there is nothing to signify that this properly is to remain idle says the eureka reporter on the other hand there are many things to indicate that a development campaign will be carried on there during the present summer some geological information is now being complied and it is quite certain that when this data has been assembled plans will be announced for some more diamond drilling or for further prospecting of the ground through the companas comp anys deep shaft manager thomas pierpont of the central standard is quite sure that it will be possible to finance a campaign for development work without assessment of the stock even though the united states people should decide against spending more money there the big working shaft of the eureka standard property located on a mineral tract just south of the tintic gintic standard mine at tintic gintic is to be deepened the shaft already has a depth of about feet and with a connection through to the workings of the tintic gintic standard mine this week sinking was resumed with the intention of putting the shaft down another feet possibly twice that distance sinking will not interfere with the prospecting operations on the and levels of the eureka standard according in to word from the tintic gintic standard office at dividend the two properties being under the same management when the shaft at the eureka standard reaches the 1000 level it is thought that drifting will commence and that the ground at that point will be quite thoroughly prospected the eure ka standards level connects with the 1000 level of the tintic gintic standard mine |
