AT the bottom OF this wipzc drift leads to

point of lime and opens apaiu into large
chamber from which large quantity Of
ore has been stoped. THIS .>tope extends
200 to the northwest and 70 feet southeast,
and to tho level above. The ore taken
from this portion of the mine was h1gn
grade Samples can be had running into
the thousands, but the average would prob
ably reach S35 to $40 per ton. There nave
been several thousand tons OF this ore
worked AT the Chairman mill. There still
remains several thousand tons OF same quar-
ity in the mine. There is no indication oil
the south wall of the mine having Teen
reached it is also questionable whether
the northwest has been reached. 1t Is the
common opinion that the south or hanging
wall is shale, and that the north or 1901
wall is porphy1y. Through the mine in
many places punches of lime are round;
but thus far they have been but punches,
ore being found on each side OF the lime.
The ore in the Chairman group is similar
to that in the Aultman and Joana mines,
possibly not so free as that in the last
named mine. The reduction OF this ore has
all been with the ordinary stamp mill,
using copper plates for saving .he gold
per cent of the gold, while at the beginning
but 10 per cent was saved. considerable
portion OF the gold that is not free is found
in white carbonate OF lead, and another
portion is found in heavy black iron,
either OF which can be readily saved by
concentrations The cyanide process ht =
been used upon the tailings at the Chain
man mill, The tailings carrying some free
gold, and gold alleged with the carbonate
of lead, makes the process fall short OF be-
ing q success,
The Chainmt n l,dge passes through the
entire length OF the Chairman mine to the
its westward course through the Turkey
and mines. These mines are but little
prospected, and nothing is known OF their
vnlue except that they are on the ex-
tension of the Oh amman aud Aultman lode.
The same can he said Of the southern Cross
mine. There is some more work done upon
the Southern Cross Samples taken from
one of the shaft assayed $27 per ton. Be
tween the Sou bern Gross and the Chain
man mines lies the
