TO THE PUBLIC.

The "mnera lands' included in the foregoing proclana-
ton embrace The greater portion of Keweena Point, and
the southern shore of Lake Superior in the northern Pc
nnsuia OF Michigan and rendered Immensely valuable
by the exhaasess mines of copper and other ores found
therein.
considerable number of those mines have already been
discovered in the trap ranges bordering Lake SUPERIOR
and within few miles Of and from the geological char

In some of the mines worked, copper is found almost
pure and in fact Of the native copper and yield

world Silver is also found in considerable quantities
All the necessary materials for the construction OF fur
naces and fuel for smelling found in abundance in the
immediate neghborhood OF the mineral and the face OF
the country such, that the mines require but little, any
artificial drainage, and therefore worked great adj
vantage
The climate in the winter though cold, does not inter-
rup the operations of the mners in fact that season is
considered the favorable for their operations.
The proximity of these mine lands TO the shore OF Lake
Superior which several safe and excellent harbo
and the communication theefrom by the Sault Ste
Marie, Lakes Huron Erie, &c, furnish ready means OF
transporting the products Of these lands to the principal
m arkets of the United States very uifing cost.

the agricultural lands fair quality producing the
usual culinary vegetables and in abundance and
