PROSPECTING AND MINING.

IKOSIECIlNAf AND M lNlNp
EDITOR ADVOCATE Sir ) Mining
and prospecting are often con-
founded Managers and owners
of what is considered mining prop
erty, take too much for lgranted
and do not investigate enough.
Nothing should sbe taken for
granted in mining that is suscep-
tible OF proof by means of small
expense
1t ia not business prudence to
run long crosscut tunnel for the
convenience Of working known
lead, until the lead has been pros
pected from the surface to the
depth of, say, one hundred feet or
more, and one or two levels run
sufficiently far to form some kind
of a base upon which to form a
business calculation.
The first hundred feet or two,
nine times out of ten, IS a good
index to what the lead will be at
greater depth, provided it is
fissure vein. The same holds
good in reference to chimneys and
blowouts. What are termed true
assures have not been bottomed-
perhaps never will be. How are
they determined BY the forma-
ton in which they are found,
which is volcanic rock, not sedi-
mentary rock.
Cash veins may sometimes
occur in volcanic formation, but
where they dc they are probably
filled from an overflow from fis-
sures or chimneys not far distant,
How do we determine cash from
fssure veins BY sinking on
them. If they pinch out entirely,
showing no signs OF continuing, it
is a good time to abandon them.
AS cash veins, they rarely extend
10 the depth OF one hundred ieet.
Some will say, we do not like to do
30 much work on cash veins.
Well, what is the difference if they
pay We should not sink one
hundred feet on true fissure il 1t

surface somewhere. 1t is better to
