From 1921 to 1927, workings in the 1910 area were extended to the 2350 level and another subshaft known as "C" Sump was sunk on or near ore from the 2200 level to the 2500 level which was the deepest level reached. In March or 1927, a combination of unexpectedly adverse conditions occured which affected the profitable operation of the Chief Mine, roremost of these was the drop in metal prices. To meet these adverse conditions, it was deemed expedient to give up the lower exworkings, and the pumping pense that was involved in their atoperation. It was plannedoreloruns additional follow to tempt down to the watrr level to help pay the expense of any future pumping operations. When pump operations were ceased, the pumps, all electrical were equipment, and mining toolslevels, removed from the lower but all pipe and track was left intact. The lowest levels flooded rapidlv. and the water rose from the 2500 level lo the 2200 level in nbout 24 hours, from the 2200 to the 2100 in two days, and from the 2100 to the 20OO level in three weeks. From this point the water rose very slowly and 24 months later the water was lat-at the 1950 level. Twelve years still er.

Volumes up to 4000 G.P.M. have been pumped into these caves with no apparent tendency for the caves to fill with water, and it has never been proved that any of the water returns to the mine workings. Major pumping operations' have been carried on during two periods, the first from 1918 to 1927, and the second from 1942 to the present time. The Chief Consolidated Mining Company was organized in 1909, and for the following nine years ore was developed and mined from the GOO level down to the 1800 level, all above the permanent water table, the 1820 level. The ore occurs as extremely-irregulpipes of replacement ore in limestone, and to date a total of approximately 2lt million tons of ore have been produced. The ore was highly oxidized down to the permand ent water lew), and some ore runs occur beneath the permanent water table. In 1916, with extensive mining being done on the 1800 level, 20 feet above the water table, there were indications that a zone of secondary enrichment might exist below the water, and in order to follow the ore runs to greater depths, it was realized that arrangements would have to be made to pump water to the surface. The original pumping installation was designed to pump 350 G.P.M. in five stages against a 1900-fohead to the surface. an exploration drift 1920, During being extended north and west from the Chief Shaft on the 1600 level encountered a large natural cave some 2000 feet from the shaft. This cave in places measured GO ft. in diameter. Sometime later the disposing of water into this cave was suggested, and as an experiment to determine the results of such an operation, an attempt was made to fill the rave by pumping in a small volume of water, but the water disappeared as fast as it was discharged into the care. It was then decided to try the cave as a drainage outlet for the entire volume of water being pumped to the surface, and the water apparently did not return to the mine workings. By 1924, it was felt that the underwater ore bodies were large and continuous enough to warrant versinking a tical shaft in limestone from the 1800 level to the 2200 level to facilitate mining and pumping operations. This shaft is now known When this 1 Winze." as winze was completed to the 2200 level, a new and much more efficient pumping system was installed to replace the old system that had gradually been built up over a period to cope with changing conditions as workings were extended ever deeper and the volume of water increased. The pumping system was so designed that all the water from the mine could be collected in a sump on the 2200 level, and from this point was pumped in three lifts by centrifical pumps directly to the 1600 cave. This system had a capacity of 1700 G.P.M., with a standby system of the same capacnewly-installe- Per O'l-car- ot Supervisor Any boy or girl 10 years of ape club.
