<br /> <br /> [ I <br />~ ~ ~ <br /> <br /> d <br />1 <br /> <br /> <br /> ~ ` <br />3 ~ `' ~ <br />'ion of tire~covntry. During the period of operation we have <br />nded in the district in development and Lvachinory alone a total <br />oximately, of x`300,000. We feel that we have put this money <br />ost excellent use and that the prospect of large returns is <br />flattering. Already we have a single ore shoot exposed for a <br />ance of 1,000 it. in the main line of the tunnel, whose '+idth <br />ies from three to thirteen feet and should it extend to tha <br />ace as it possibly may, there is here a body of ore about 580 <br />t cteop, 1,000 ft. long and will average three feet in widtr~; <br />cinF; the value of such an ore body as low as $8 or y10 you can <br />yotcrself, what the possibility may be. We expect to open a <br />e body of ore in the old 2di Wot and Columbia mines; but of <br />s wo can speak with no definiteness now, relyinf as we do, <br />ost wholly upon ttte credited records of production and traditions <br />ithisrnine. We will say in conclusion that 1t is our intention <br />begin production in a general way about avid-surmner, and we will <br />~n bo in shape to handle about 150 tons of ore a day and wily say <br />ttcer, that wo have been Whipping steadily to the Culbertson mill <br />the plains with satisf:cctory r~tttrna and would have been send- <br />out about 1,000 tons of tine same at the present time, had it not , <br />n for the general tie-up due to the storms. <br />Thankin;, you again for reforrint~ the inquiry to us, wo are <br />Very truly yours, <br />~. <br />v <br />~!~~~~t' <br />
