Hayden of Salt Lake, the company's consulting engineer. The company's properties are located in the Nebo mining district In Juab county, two miles east of the state highway and eight miles north of Nephi. According to Mr. Hayden there have now been completed in excess of 700U feet of underground development and large tonnage of milling and a fair amount of shipping ore has been blocked out. He estimates the amount of available ore at 50,000 tons. Part of the development work under way consists of a raise from the Hague tunnel to the ore bodies in the Blackett tunnel. A winze is also being sunk upon the Wardle vein from a drift of the north section of the Hague tunnel, the main artery of the mine development. At 400 feet from this tunnel, according to Mr. Hayden's report, a drift Is being run north forty degrees east to attack fissures at a depth, outcrops of which are exposed on the surface. At a station 370 feet from the drift a strike of load ore averaging nearly 60 per cent and carrying silver averages was made. The ore has now been followed to a depth of forty feet. The drift will be driven to extend 320 feet and reach daylight In Bear canyon for the purpose of mine ventilation and to provide haulage to the mill.

The reservoir drains the east basin of the Nebo mountain and the electricity generated will operate the machinery at the xerjo property. Jn fm -- Nephi, Juab County, Utah; Friday, January 25th, 1929.
