| Show mine superintendent fisher talks about the Nail driver prospects lor for the Nall driver mine situated in the park city district I 1 as a dividend payer with high grade ore showing in several fissures on oil different levels are excellent aci j cording to john D fisher mine superintendent in an interview with a salt lake tribune reporter lost last monday not only has hag the mine 8 show ow tugs ings which inspire confidence in the future ture of the property but the equipment tor for prosecuting further development work and the physical condition ot of the mine insures economical operation four years ago mr fisher who I 1 has mined in the blue ledge disi district erict ot of park city tor for thirty years took a lease upon I 1 he N ail driver pro after considerable dis coura gement which is consequent with mining ventures ven ures operations at this mine more than justified mr fishers faith alth in the property developments proved that his knowledge of 0 the intricacies of the miner and ot of the geology of the district was accurate and made it possible tor for him to recoup the losses ol of his former adverse ventures last tall fall the mine balne was taken over by the company and mr fisher was put in charge of 0 operations so sue has beebi development that at present the comp company finy has followed on the dip of the fissure one showing indof of ore which runs from the foot level to the foot lovel level with a width ranging from two to eighteen teet feet all conditions indicate that the ore goes to depth and from tha the foot level to grass roots how far the shoot extends along the strike of the fissure Is unknown sloping from both sides ot of the raise from rom the BO level to the has sections found the ore to persist in both directions ions along the strike of the assure the control assay of shipments mado made ahls shoot according to mr air fishr altow A t he follow ing values aes ues 45 ounces silver 16 15 per cent lead and fa 2 in gold eold ORE SHOOTS INDICATES rather unique geological conditions exist at the NalI driver two fissures in the lime a south dippin deppin and a north dipping intersect near the 7 00 foot fevel bo h ot of these fissures continue in place to depth an and to the upper levels moreover li ir both of these intersecting fissured fissures excellent showings ot of ore persist on the dip of the fissures upwards aad downwards hom the intersection 1 I in the south dipping fissure which his has been deve developed toped bya false from the foot level to the toot tool level the ore varies in width from two to twelve teet feet this raise will bo be driven from the level to the 46 level where where the old creen workings will be broken into T this c con on A lection will facilitate the handling of 0 ore it is the plan ot of the company to lay heavy ralls ln in the croon creen tunnel so that in the near future all ore mined in the newer and lower levels of the mine will be hauled out the old creen workings w whereby hereby a three quarter mile haul over a heavy grade and the tour four hundred feet of hoisting necessary to bring ore 0 to o the eup the new shaft w will be eliminated originally all work done I 1 in ll 11 the Nail driver property was v as accomplished from the creen workings worT tings later the creen tunnel was abdo abandoned ed ind and the Nail driver shaft driven n TO ro

the way in ore which varies in width two to eighteen feet 01 operations E RATIONS BEGUN sloping from both sides of this raise has not as yet found any flindt limit to the ore according to mr air fisher A sunk from the toot levy el a depth of forty feet has five flit feet of the sanie same character of ore showing in the bottom recently the dunyon crosscut made from ahe the foot level to pelop develop d this bissu re e opened up tour four feet of first class ore which owing to its composition and to its position Is undoubtedly the continuation of the ore followed from the level to the in dictations inthe in the root roof of the dunyon crosscut are ire that this ore will continue to grassroots grass roots says mr fisher granity gratifying r ing results were recently attained by running a crosscut into the of the north dipping ledge in which the largest showing body of ore has bag been opened up after the crosscut cross clit had gole gone a distance of ai feet a parallel 1 fissure of of high grade value which I 1 in i n width will r range ange from six inches to I 1 two wa feet and will average one toot was wag opened up this shoot of ore which has been followed toll owed tor for a considerable dis distance bance gives every indication ot of I 1 making into an important body boby 0 of ore says Mr fisher shipments shipment s which have bel been averaging about twenty twenty two
