Of quartz both show Q vastly improved
condition Of the vein over what u was,
even 200 feet farther south on the level
above. In writing or speaking OF this
development two things must be
borne In mind, first that the
quartz and orc development was not
found closer than within 200 feet OF where
the drill hole was run, which Is now being
followed up by crosscut No. !; and Sec
ondly. that taking into consideration the
known dip OF the ore vein on the 1900 level.

this level has been bulkheaded. This 10

water caving and filling the drift. super

leave to remove that bulkhead at any time
when they conclude that they are Sala-

To scald instantly. The course OF this
