works for reduction. and presents al
average assay of SG95 TO the ton. A
shaft is being sunk and il il the intention
Of the owners to erect n mill as soon n
the necessary preliminary work on the
mine shall be completed. As tho mine
is tho property OF private parties, who
have expended considerable amount OF
money in tho purchase aud the defraying
Of the expense Of dead work incidental
in opening out the mine, no time will be
lost in getting at the ore, several veins
