INSPECTED THE MINES.
HOW He FOUND THE GtysER-MARIoS'


The return Of George Dern from
Aercur confirms the stand taken by
the News" Saturday evening with re-
spect to the condition of the
Mercur mine. That 1t was
never in better shape, is the declara-
ton Of the gentleman mentioned. the
whole property from end to end and
side to side. presenting marvellous pic
lures of low and high grade ore bodies
as they appear In the order in which
they have been discovered and opened
up TO view. MA.
or course the Lulu tunnel is the pres
ent point OF interest, as here It is where
recent developments have proved to an
extent. the great value of the Mercur
property. MIR. Dern ON his recent visit
took occasion to examine the mine in
all It's workings, and he says the
values are holding their own very WELL
the ore all the way in the tunnel for u
distance of over 400 feet, giving an
average value better than Sl2, while ut
the present point OF operations the
values vary all the way from SIS to
$3.50 to the ton.
The Lulu tunnel will extend through
tils Lulu ana fFtIlunl tlu'flS, tuhblib
through LEGO feet of ground from the
Matte workings The miners are still
pegglng away at the rate of several
feet day, just throwing sufficient ore
on the dump to facilitate and make
possible the progress of the work The
company has just closed an order for
a tramway, and when this is erected,
the ore Will be hauled to the Matte
bins and there deposited to await Its
turn to 20 into the mill.
A very interesting part OF develop
ments at the Mercur at present is the
labor of the miners In the old work.
ings, where years ago the pick and
shovel did good service in opening up
what was then n mere prospect in an
undeveloped camp. At this point good
values are being encountered, and as
the ore body is 40 feet thick. the produc-
ton here is an immense one and
amounts to quite a source of revenue
to the Mercur company. The upper
vein, gone into recently. is also looking
well, and in fact conditions as n whole
tend to indicate that the Mercur Is one
vast bed of ore.
THE GEYSER- MARIoN.
Speaking of the Geyser- Marion, Mr..
Dern stated that the upper vein In this
property was looking fine. and that its
caving in had opened up an aperture
$50 feet long and so feet wide, the whole
chasm showing u splendid grade Of
good milling ore. The mill tunnel, said
he. was also showing a considerable
quantity of ore, and although low
grade, 1t was OF quality well suited
to the mill. In connection with mention
of this property, 1t may be said that
Mr. George +. DOwney has left for the
East TO fix UP the bond looking to its
purchase in four months time.
The whole of Mercur liz looking WELL
said Mr.. Dern. A good deal of work
is going on throughout the camp and
the Golden Gate mill IL rapidly nearing
completion. the contractors being at
work in putting up the last section of
the gigantic ore bin.
