"Such numerous outcropsof copper ore aveb been traced over the summit and
sides of those hills that out of $4,000 acres of land which the company own, hardly
a 100 acre tract should be found without oreu upon the surface.
A cross-cut to the depth of Is feet vas made upon the Isben lead, and ten
hours work resulted in the raising Of 5000 lbs. of rich copper ore,a averaging about

Of work had been done, I employed a few hands and cleaned out the tunnels
when I found a lode of copper. This is the disuphae of copper and will yield as
high as 70 per cent. of copper. I drove the tunnel twenty feetfu further into the
hill, following the lode. When I had gone about twelve. feet I struck another
lode Of copper eighteen inches east and six inches below the second lode. In three
feet more " e struck another lode below the second lode. Immediately below the
lower sandstone is a stratum of cuprferous mari schiss extending the entire width
