Vhe oos.Fisher exploration
has been taken by Corrigan,
Mckinney a Co. and a thorough
test Of the property will be made
as soon rs matters are in shape.
The property lies between the
Holllster and the McCusker find
and has gone begging for some
some one to take hold of it until
the Gibson and McCusker finds
started people to that territory
Prominent mining men think
that, with depth, a body of desir-
able ore will be shown up. In
the present shaft which is but
seventy feet deep a breast of sc
per cent ore eighteen feet in
width has been proved up.

The find on the NV Of the
NV of "a in this town which
was noted in these columns last
week has been sold by its owner,
Thos. j. McCusker. TO the
Minnesota Iron company and it
is safe to say that the property
will be developed by this enter
prising concern rs speedily as
possible. A reporter for The
DIAMOND DRILL visited the ex-
ploration last Saturday in com
pany with Agent Bradt and saw
the ore uncovered in the bottom
of the first pit. A second pit
was beng put down about twenty
feet south along the trend and
eighteen feet across the vein at
the time OF our visit. 1t was
then down into the broken jas.
per and when the men came in
from the workings that evening
they reported having gone
through the jasper into the ore.
1t is very promising looking
property and is no doubt a con
tinuation of the Hollister forma-
ton.
Last week we stated, in
writing up the McCusker find,
that il is located in the Mans
field slatcs. We had in mind
another exploration at tho time.
Mr.. McCusker's find is west OF
the diorite along the contact Of
the latter with the undivided
Huronian formation the same
range that extends through from
the hope TO Amasa.

Another Exploration.

The Crystal Falls Iron Mining
company has started a diamond
drill at work upon the forty east
of the Great Western mine for
the purpose of proving up
the body OF ore that is known
TO exist upon this property. AT
this writing they have a stand
pipe down over 100 feet in quick
sand. In 1890 the Knifller Man
ufacturing company worked a
drill upon the property aud cut
$50 feet OF ore. There is a very
heavy surface of quicksand upon
the ore, the depth Of it in the
hole driven by the Knifiler
people being over $50 feet. The
ore is of q lower grade than that
In the Great Western but il

difficulty of getting a shaft

but that an important mine will

chased by the Minnesota Iron Co.
This latter company has also
purchased all OF the claims
about the lake and practically
has the bulk of the iron lands in
the vicinity.
Mr.. Roberts took samples OF
the ore and found il TO be q GO
per cent bcssemer close TO the
limit. He questions. however,
if the presence OF the sulphur
in the associate rocks does
not effect the ore. The
Minnesota Iron company has
purchased a harbor and a
railroad is being built TO the iron
lands by parties interested in
the pulp wood up the river val
ley. At the present time 200
men are at work grading the
road and il is thought that the
mines will have shipping facili-
ties by fall.
A mining claim in this country
consists of twenty two and one
half acres. The holder must
pay $1,000 license and do S175. 90
worth of work on the claim each
year. The Canadian govern

FROM THE MINES
THE NEW RANGE.
Hon. G. T. Roberts tells a Diamond
Drill Reporter OF the Algoma
Iron Range.

Iron Range.
The Algoma iron range is To-
Gated about 100 from Sault Ste.
Marie on the north shore of
Lake Superior in the province
of Ontario, Canada, and was first
brought to the attention Of iron
men by the gold seekers who
went into that country in large
numbers last summer. The dis
trict, which is also known Us the
Michipicoten district, begins a
few miles south OF Michipicoten
bay and extends north along the
shore OF Lake Superior for a
distance of about fifty miles.
1t has q width of about sixteen
miles, that is, as near as is
known from present explora
tions which are not sufficient 10
prove the exact extent of the
iron bearing formation. The
Huronian states are cut through
at different places by bikes of
altered trap rock, hornblend. con
glomerate, quartz and porphry.
The quartz carries free gold and
Mr.. Roberts says that he saw
many fine samples OF that ele.
ment, it occurring principally
upon the contact of the quartz
with the porphory. Most of the
veins carry yellow copper.
Nickel and other metals are
found in this district quite ex-
tensiyely.
The bulk OF the iron ore dis.
covered on the range so far lies
in a u" shaped basin about the
north east side of Lake Boyer
which is about ten miles in
land from Lake Superior and
stands at quite an elevation
above the latter. A ridge of
jasper lies along the foot side of
the formation here for distance
OF two miles or more and it is
against this jasper that the ore
lies. To the north, the jasper
disappears and its place is taken
/ by a ridge OF iron sulphide
known To miners as mundic.
| Mr.. Roberts followed this ridge
along its trend for distance OF
Ten miles. At many points
shafts and drifts have been
driven into tie rock by gold
seekers. This ridge is, TO Mr..
| Roberts thinking. the mother
of the ore deposit, but all of the
ore found so far occurs, as
before stated, at the break near
Lake Boyer, where the sulphide
gives place to the jasper. Here
a tongue OF land protrudos from
the east shore towards the
middle of the lake distance OF
about one. half mile. Upon this
tongue Mr.. Roberts saw a de
post of brown hematite ore OF
60 per cent quality estimated tf
contain about 100000 tons with
nothing covering IL but moss

At Iron River.

The coal trestle at the Dober
mines is being filled with coal.
1t is expected TO get in about A.
600 tons, which will carry the
company through the winter.
The trestle at the Riverton mine
will be completed in day or
two, when it too will be filled
with coal. Both trestles are said
to be among the largest and best
in the Lake Superior district.
A steam shovel was put to
work on the stockpile at the
Dober mine Tuesday morning.
and by Thursday afternoon ha d
loaded $50 cars. aggregating
about $500 tons which were
shipped to the docks at Escanaba
where a boat was in waiting to
be loaded. During the progress
of the shovel it frequently en-
countered frozen ore, which il
was almost impossible TO bulge.
Almost 1900 tons is yet left in
the stockpile. The shovel was
sent to Ironwood yesterday
Reporter.
John G.. Sipchen, who has AL
ready opened up several good
iron mines during the past five or
six years, is doing some explor-
atory work on section Is 1895.
He has a test pit down about 40
feet, and those who have ex.
amined the stuff which has been
brought up are positive that he
is going TO find another mine
before he goes down much
deeper. Those who have prop.
erty In that vicinity claim that
there are fine outcroppings of
in number of places. The
Reporter trusts that Mr.. Sip
chen's enterprise may result in
the discovering Of more than one
mine in that direction.
The Reporter scribe in com
pany with Prof. Farmer visited
the different mining properties
yesterday. AT the Hiawatha
the work of stripping the ore
still continues, two teams and
scrapers being at work. Across
the ravine n little to the west OF
the old shaft new pit is being
put down. 1t was put down
about Is feet and mixed ore was
being hoisted. The pit is being
made large enough to accom-
modate small pump, one being
in operation at the time of our
visit.
