been traced over the summit and sides of those
hills that out of 1000 acres of land which the
company own, hardly iG0-acfe tract should he

Atwood Assays.
LOWELL, June e1st. 1890.
have made rather hasty examination Of the
sample of copper orc which you gave me and
submi the report. n
This ore is what is known az Cbalcocit~ or con-
per glance and ~ copper suphide in S)
mainly with somoirnpurity such as iron, gangue,
etc.
It contains $3.50 of copper and is very fine
ore. The percentage reported Is correct TO
within one-half of one per cent.
