1MPBRIAL-EMpfRE.-T Empire drift at
the 9OO-foot level from the Imperial Empire
| shaft has progressed about 100 feet into the
| ledge, finding thus fat precious little except
hard, barren quartz and general vein matter.
The Imperial drift at the same level has
penetrated 80 feet, or about half through the
ledge, with similar success. The side drift
south from the main drift, near the east
wall, following some little seams of ore, was
discontinued after penetrating to the extent
Of 80 feet. the indications not being encour-
aging. The side drift north is 20 feet in
length, but develops no increase of the little
seams of ore. About the last of this week
or the first of next, Wine will be started
from the bottom of the old Imperial shaft,
to intersect and connect with the Imperial
drift at the west wall Of the ledge. This
winze will be 23O feet in depth, and it is an
ticipated that it will develop some good ore
lying next to the west wall. When it con-
meets with the lower drift fine circulation
of air will be established throughout, which :,
is very much needed in those lower regions. /
From this winze, it is proposed to run one or
two prospecting drifts in the two hundred
feet Of unprospected ground living between |
the old lower level of the Imperial mine and
the present ones from the Imperial Empire |
shaft. 1t is proposed to sink this new shaft |
100 feet deeper, bur it is not decided vet |
how soon this operation will be commenced.
