Show TH 16 ITIhie i?e ffiflon Continued from page E CITIZEN The Moscow Silver mine is sinking its three compartment shaft 200 xcet deeper, from the 1400 to uie 1600-folevel. This work is to be undertaken at once. Supplies, new drills, lumber and other equipment have been purchased and shipped to the mine at Milford. Sinking of the shaft will be rushed to its objective in order to explore the Red TOe SHuig Eacli -- 11 New showings are opened up at the Horn Silver Mine. A telegram received at the pffices of the Tintic Lead company, owners of the Horn Silver, stated that three new strikes had been made in one day. A Galena deposit had been opened on the 1000 level north of tiie shaft anda body of sulphide is reported on the .500 level. Since work on the 1000 and 500-folevels has been started in virgin country with the idea of finding the downward continuation of the rich ore bodies productive of millions, above these levels, more importance is attached to these showings by those in touch with conditions than to other discoveries made heretofore. ot A charge of 212,000 pounds of dynamite, the largest ever set off in the Lake Superior district in Michigan, loosened 600,000 tons of iron ore. This ore will be loaded by power shovels and shipped this summer by rail and water. During the winter months 635 church-dri- ll holes, 5 inches in diameter were put down on two benches. The lower bench had 514 holes nearly 44 feet deep and the upper bench had holes that went about 58 feet deep. The powder employed was 40, 60, and 80 per cent gelatine while 10 miles of fuse was used. At the Mineral Veins property, in Alta, experiments have been carried on for some time to determine the nature of units to be installed in a large mill the company intends building for the purpose of handling its great tonnage of low grade ores. Details of the proposed mill have not been announced as yet but it is understood that the deal has been closed. Erection is to start as soon as weather conditions permit. ot Warrior limestones for the orebodies productive in the upper levels and followed down in the winze below the 1400. No great amount of drifts ing will be needed on the 1600 is the opinion of Manager Garratt S. Wilkin as the shaft is to be sunk in the heart of the mineralized area with the ore bearing formations all dipping toward the shaft. According to F. H. Brownell, of the American Smelting and Refining company and president of the Federal Mining and Smelting company, the Morning Mine at Mul-laIdaho, is the deepest dead mine in the world. The mine is entered by a long tunnel and the shaft then descends 3,450 feet which is 5000 feet below the peak of the hill. Mr. Brownell is of the opinion that ore deposits will persist 1000 feet lower. Last year the mine produced a vice-preside- nt n, 1.000 tons of ore daily and net 800.000 for the year. The North Lily ore body ures 700 feet on rake with an to-wa- aver- ve levels. Geological Survey resumes its work in southeastern Utah. The work has been in progress for several years. Geologist C. H. Dane is in charge of the party. The survey has completed work on the San Rafael, swell zone and published a geological description of this region which is being actively prospected for oil and potash. A limited number of copies of this bulletin may be had at the local office in the Federal building. rd ot well-groom- ed man fashion. The lone, middle-age- d with the baffled expression.

The tests were conducted by General' Engineering. ploration of limestone horizons for silver-lea- d ore bodies, as indicated by diamond drilling, is being continued. In addition to its leaching-in-plac- e operations the company may undertake mining of a devolped tonnage of copper ore, as well as mining the undeveloped East ore body. - jjp |
