! fault planes below where you have al
. ready stoped?"
Yes, there is good ore on the 200 ant
500
The dip Is not the same between tn,
4 faults as ii is east or the faults?"
Not near the hanging wall"
is there the same condition west?"
The dip may be a little fatter toward
/ the west"
DO these streaks, even II in The zone
have distinct hanging wall ard ioot-
wall?"
Not always"
The witness said the deposition If ore
is greater along the east faul;. At Inc
request of Mr.. Forbis me iueasui ca the
zone and found it about 200 feet wide
at the apex and at the east fault plane
from the hanging wall Of the zone to the
footwall of the connecting vein he
found to be S65 feet,
You have then an independent zone
practically 500 feet wide?"
Yes"
You could drop the block from
Broadway to Park down in the zone?'
II have not measured the distance
from Broadway 10 Park"
Don't you believe you could?'
IF the distance from Broadway to
Park Is 300 feet, 4 could be dropped into
the zone. ! am not guessing at the fig
ures. We have stopped 500 feet in width"
But you have to take in the fault
planes for that measurement"
fault plane
But you include also the Bryan and
the Mckinley stopes?"
No
9Thefes is no such width of Slopes
anywhere else as there is between the
faults--300 feet?'
NO"
And in the Michael Dewitt ground
the width of slopes is only 40 to so
feet?'
THAT is about the width At the $50,
it is over 30 feet in width
You stated the other day that you
can start at the $50 of the Rarus and
go clear through to the Michael Dewitt
workings on ore?'
Yes"
But the ore is limited to your fault
line?"
Not limited, no.
Your pay ore ISL
II don't know. We haven't mined yet
east Of there"
North Of the Michael Dewitt lode line,
have you ever stopped bit of ore in the
Rarus except between the fault planes?"
I'VE are hosting concentrating ore
now from the north drift"
How far is this from the Slopes of
the Michael Devitt?'
About 40 feet
And do you mean to say that these
are connected?"
Yes, in various ways
by levels and cross-cuts, of course?'
II mean that the country between
them is all mineralized.
rs any ore being extracted north Of
the line of the Michael Dewitt that you
can connect with the Rarus?"
II believe we could extract it If we
our workings, but we have not
done that yet"
At this point the noon recess was
taken
At the opening of the afternoon ses-
sion Mr. Forbis inquired of Mr.. Mac |
Earlane relative TO the porphyry dyke |
he had spoken of in his direct examina-
ton. The witness said the dyke is all
but there is no commercial |
ore in 1t above the $50, and In some
places below that 1t has pay ore. The |
dyke is all in the zone. There is por-
phyry inside the fault i'm some places, |
but has mostly gone into ore in there. |
Questioned again in regard to cunnec-
ton with the Michael Dewitt the witness |
said that il would be necessary to go |
part way in the fault plane IN order to
go on ore TO the Michael Dewitt slopes |
The witness said that on Michael Dewitt |
ground are we'll defined seams on the |
Chase raise and on the Michael Dewitt |
shaft These extend down to the Mich |
ael Dewitt ore bodies.
Mr. Forbs then called MI MacFar- |
lanes attention 10 his affidavit of Dec. /
20 last. in which he said that near the /
east end line of the Rarus and through |
sections J. ]. and n X. the Rarus vein T
IS large vein, from 100 10 100 feet IN /
width that in this vein are two well |
defined ore bodies. one on the foot and |
The other on the hanging WALL and that |
seams Of ore of various sizes cross dag I
Onally and that raise had beel made |
On the hanging wall of the vein. be- |
ginning on the upper slopes Of the Goo |
foot level and continuing on the vein |
and ore to the 4s0-foot level, and thence |
on continuous vein and ore to the go |
and l10-toot levels, and from the top of |
his raise. known as the Free Milling /
raise, a cross-cut reached To the foot
wall
Mr. MacFarlane said in regard TO this
affidavit that the cross-cut at that time
had not been extended, Since its extern
sion he had slightly changed the loea-
ion of the footwall. He had placed the
southeast corner of the Rarus in the
Rarus and near the hanging wall at that
ime. but since other cross-cuts had |
been driven he had somewhat changed !
he location. Since December there had
,een much additional development work
lone.
The plaintiff then offered in evidence
he affidavit of James MacFarlane of
asst December and the cross eNamina-
ion was concluded.
Mr.. Vale conducted the redirect ex-
animation of Mr.. MacFarlane. On re-
iirect examination Mr.. MacFarlane said
hat since his affidavit tunnel No. had
been completed. Tunnel No had been
'tarted in January. Shaft Ne. had
been started short time ago The
'ross-cut has been extended and short
irifts run west, all within the last six
weeks. The cross-cut Of the lJ0-faot
evel had been driven northerly within
he last six weeks. The various devel-
lpment works of the plaintiffs were be-
run last September and We're examined
~ the witness off and on since then
The witness said that these workings
developed the seams indicated hereto
ore by. the witness. The Michael Dewitt
hiatt was not started on any vein or
revice. The witness gave the follow
