Show DRIVE CROSSCUT IIH " . PROMISING GROUND Miners on Bingham-Tooele Property Encounter More Mineral. There has been a decided increase in the mineralization encountered in the Bingham -Tooele Mining company 'a property, prop-erty, adjoining the Utah Metal & Tunnel Tun-nel company's property in the Bingham district. This has occurred in the past five days, according to the local officials. offi-cials. President J. A. Kauffman has returned from the property with samples sam-ples of the rock that he took from the breast of the crosscut. He is confident that ore will be dovcloped and said that the present crosscut has entered some of the most promising ground that has been opened to date. Tho main tunnel is now in a distance of 864 feet and has .attained a vertical depth of about 600 feet from tho surface. sur-face. At a point about sixty feet back from the face of the main tunnel a crosscut was started to the east on a four-foot body of black limestone which had been driven through. The main tunnel is being driven in a southerly direction and its course is practically parallel to a large porphyry dike. The objective of the tunnel is to reach the quartzite where it is in contact con-tact with the Jordan limestone and to explore the contact in the vicinity of where it is intersected by the porphyry dike. "When it was discovered, however, that the water flowing from the tunnel at the point where the four feet of limestone lime-stone had been cut contained copper in solution a crosscut was started toward the porphyry dike. This has been extended ex-tended for a distance of twenty-five feet, with the mineralization showing a decided increase. The formation is breaking much better and the miners are moving forward at the rate of about eighteen inches per day. When the dike is reached it will be driven through and the territory explored on the other side of it." A heavy flow of water has been encountered in the crosscut-Boston crosscut-Boston Copper Quotations.
