SHELTER AND STAMPS,

The Reported Additional Stamps, and
Smelter Plant Contemplated by the
Granite and Bi-Metallic Companies.
1t is the genera! opinion in mining
circles in this section lately that the
Granite and Bi-MetalIic companies will
in the spring build large smelter. and
people are now trying to guess where the
location for the same will be- It seems
quite necessary that these mines should
have smelter, and il they should con-
solldate in the construction of the same,
as it is understood they intend dong, it
would no doubt be a grand success.
The Bi-Metallic company will have their
additional 10 stamps dropping on ore in
the spring, and it is also understood that
the Granite people intend putting in 20
more stamps at the Granite mill, making
in all 220 stamps that will be dropping
on ores Of the Granite and Bi-Metallic
mines. When the location for the pro-
posed smelter is selected 1t will in all
be as much e surprise to the
people as the Rumsey millsite was, and
at present it would be hazardous to
mention any location that would likely
be selected as there are many favorable
sites in the Immediate vicinity

DGnkIeberg District.

Mining in the. Dunkleberg district is
keeping apace with other mineral sections
in the state, and at present is experien-
cling quite a boom.
The Forest Rose, which is at present
the most valuable property in the dis
trict, is looking we'll. They are now
shipping one carload of ore each day and
have about forty carloads on the dump
ready for shipment, with plenty more in
sight in the mine. The Rose is likely to
be one of the richest mines in Deer
Lodge county.
There is some talk of the Hatta start
ing mp again, but it is doubtful if this
Wi be done before spring opens up.
Numerous prospects are being worked,
and all are looking extremely we'll 1t is
expected that with the opening of sprug
there will be quite stir in the district.
