' It is only a month ago that official an- ' nouncement was made of the purpose of the Eureka Mines company to inaugurate and push an active and aggressive campaign cam-paign of development on its Tintic properties. prop-erties. The work previously done had demonstrated the existence of the ore and the favorable location of the ground. That the late developments have been , highly pleasing to ail concerned is indi- j cated in the reports received yesterday j at the local offices, which are to the ef- ; feet that ore in the bottom of the winze below the crosscut on the 1200-foot level now carries values of 53 ounces silver. with 16 per cent of lead. The winze is j eight feet wide, entirely in ore, and the miners have now gone down twelve feet, so far making no effort to drift on the rich ore body. A 100-ton shipment of ore is ready for transportation just as soon as weather conditions will permit, but in view of the fact that a blizzard has raged in the camp since last Tuesday, Tues-day, it is impossible for the management to say how soon the product can be marketed. |
