The Copper Beii-whst seems des-
tined to be one OF the biggest mines
of the district 10 the Copper bell.
There 10 on the Copper Bell proper
q aco-rooi crosscut tunnel. a N-foot
shaft. and some considerable drift
ting from the bottom OF the latter.
This work has demonstrated aeso-
lutsly that there is an ore shoot at
least II feet In width. and that IL ~
$50 feet In height. only one wall has
been found as yet. with the IL feet OF
solid ore. When work was begun here
they sank a u foot shaft In the ore
cropping a short distance up the
mountain. and from the bottom OF
this shaft drifts were run in both
directions. the one Ave and the other
seven feet Every foot Of this work
IL in ore that will run all the way
from to 40 per cent copper. with
some value In gold and silver,
Then they dropped down the hill
100 feet and began eroEseut. to
reach the ore at n depth. the work
continuing a distance OF 200 feet be-
fore the footwsll was encountered.
when they broke through this they
found ore. and they drove through IL
20 feet without any diminution OF the
body or decreasing OF values There
are now on the two dumps here fully
] 900 tons or ore that Will average
over 10 per cent. copper.
Farther up the hill II the Jumbo
lead Of the same property, showing
on the surface 20 feet In width. when
in something over ~ feet on the 40
foot tunnel small streaks OF red OK
ide OF copper made their appearance.
and these have been increasing till
there II now a seam averaging over
three inches on the footwall. while
In the crosseut AT intervals eonsii-
erable deposits are found. thus Civ
ing rise to the impression that on the
hanging wall viii be found n deposit
of this species Of copper ore Of some
magnitude. This IL borne out by the
fact that some distance above the
tunnel, and on the hanging wall. a
shot was put in and uncovered solid
red oxide There has been very mea-
ger occurrence Of this In the whole
camp. the Calumet being the only
property where II has hitherto been
found In any quantity. and that its
appearance Is hailed with delight
