under contract, working through the
Crown Point mine. The new ma
chinery Of the hosting works will be
ready to start into full operation about
the last of next week, When extraction
of ore from tine mine will be proceeded
with as Of old.
HALE & NoRCRoes.
Daily yield 10 tons. principally from
between the 9Th and 7th levels, includ-
ing 80 tons daily contribution from the
l75 and 2OO-foot levels Of the old mine.
The ore breasts all hold out we'll. At
the Sth or. new lowest level recently
opened, the main drift north Is now
In 143 feet. 1t Is following the west
edge Of the ore body and keeps In very
excellent ore, which doubtless extends
to aud perhaps beyond the Savage line.
The main east drift Is % feet into this
ore body, and the cross-cut 80 feet fur
Their north is into It the same distance,
and the connection with 1t and the
winze from the level above being eff
fected, giving a good air circulation.
Both these cross-cuts are in rich ore,
and do not find the east wall yet. A
very important Wine is being sunk
from the 7th level of this mine, at the
Savage line, which Is now down % feet
in excellent ore all the way.
SAVAGE.
Daily yield l55 tons, principally
from the lower mine, aided BY a very
material contribution from tho 600-foot
level of the old mine, where a very
good body Of ore Is encountered.
From this point 90 tons we're takeu
yesterday, and In a couple Of days
more that yield will be nearly doubled:
The ore breasts ut the ninth level and
20 feet above are looking as well as
yielding excellently, showing contin-
ued Improvement. The ninth level
Of this mime corresponds aud connects
with the seventh level Of the Hale q
Norcross, and the Wine which Is being
sunk below this level, at the line be-
tween the two mines, being now down
% f ct in excellent ore, promises i'm
portant future developments. The
main Savage shaft il down 81 feet
below the ninth level, and the tenth
level will be commenced after sinking
6 feet deeper.
CROWN POINT.
Daily yield 80 tons, all from the old
upper miEe. We have nothing new or
important to note relative to the recent
ore development in the south drift ut
the |, l0O-foot level. Il Is being thor
oughly prospected, aud the indications
are that it will lead to the finding Of a
body of ore somewhere below that
point. The station timbers are already
put in for the ], 200-foot level-lOO feet
perpendicularly beneath the present
lowest or !, l00-foot level-which will
not be opened, however, just at pres
eht. but the sinking Of the incline Is
being continued below, at the usual
rate.
BELcHER.
The incline at the 335-foot level, near
the Crown Point line Is down 73 feet,
and the bottom Is in very low grade
ore, assaying $l5 to $l7 per ton on the
average. The quartz Is Of n very
promising quality and may lead into
something pretty good yet. The face
of the drift west at the 420-foot level
shows a mixture Of porphyry and clay
with an occasional stringer Of lively
quartz.
