found in the old works above; the face
is in ore of low grade. The company
are building a fine, large and conve-

getting ready for heavy operations In
the way of ore extraction. The man.

Of good ore, aud the quantity extracted
from the lower levels Of the mine,

south drift on the l600-foot level is
still driven ahead, making excellent
progress during the week, the rock In
