The new l, 200-foot level constitutes
the main ore supply, and will be so
for some time to come. 1t yields over

feet north of the shaft. with no wall
OIL either side, and the ore shows i'm
proyement in that direction. Some Of
the richest sulphuret and stephanite
ore we ever saw comes from there
within the last few days, and some of
It Is plentifully sprinkled with free
gold. This Is 4 most significant and
