The main DRIFT In the first level Is
rapidly carried westward. The course
Of this tunnel Il directly toward the
ore vein. There Il no change In the
characteristics Of the ground penetrat-

The main DRIFT on the 1l67-foot level
from the Gould aud Curry shaft is still
ahead with no extra favorable
Indications In sight. The cross cuts

through low grade ore. The excaya-

new hosting machinery Is progressing
The drift north Is following the pay

a short distance west Of the Consol-
