its vertical displacement. He did not
think it had been dropped down any
farther.
The witness said that the identity
of the original formation between the
faults had been so absolutely destroyed
by the faulting that there were no
veins there that could be correlated
with those east and west.
He stated that he found a vertical
ore body between the faults on the
900 level, but did not find it upon any
other level He did not find the ver-
teal ore body forming junction with
the fiat ore body. He could not say,
from the examination he made, that
these veins do not unite somewhere be-
tween the faults. He thought he saw
most of the workings described in the
testimony of Expert Lee Hayes.
DO you correlate the ore body be-
tween the faults, described as having
dip of 20 degrees by Mr.. Hayes, with
any vein east and west of the faults p"
asked Mr.. Hughes.
mo, SIR" said the witness.
Mr.. Bulky stated emphatically that
it Is quite a different matter to trace
the original course of a disconnected
vein which has been mixed up with
others. and a single porphyry dyke
not confused by the presence of any
other dyke, even though the dyke We're
complicated by branch which was
thin and easily distinguished. Mr.
Hughes had asked him if. since he had
been able to correlate the parts of
the disrupted dyke, he ought not be
able to correlate strongly marked
vein in the ground with certainty.
The witness said that he thought the
nearly vertical ore body extends from
one fault to the other between the
faults on the 450 level, and that the
case was the same on the 400 level,
though he had not seen all the work.
ings there. On the 500 level there is
an ore body, but not the same
Statements from the testimony of Lee
Hayes on cross-eXamination were read
to the witness. They related to Slopes
that the witness said had been omit
ted from the defendants model. A
certain body of ore, dipping at an angle
OF 70 degrees, was mentioned, and the
witness was asked If he could identify
1T. He said he could.
Well, then, have you attempted to
see If there is vein of this same dip
on the same level joining it outside
of the faults?" asked MIR. Hughes.
mo; the empty slopes at the faults
prevent the tracing of it," said the
witness.
Have you found any ore bodies of a
similar dip outside the faults?'
Yes; west of the west fault, on the
45O level. there are vertical ore bodies
extending downward"
Yes. Well, right there, if you fol-
low them across the fault, do not they
come against each other, and are they
not found together?'
Yes, SIR"
Was there anything else between
the ore bodies there than the clay
seam you speak off,"
mo, sir; I don't think there was
anything except broken matter"
Then you could go through the
workings on ore without displace-
ment?"
True
The witness testified that there is
place on the 450 level where the stop
ing goes through the east fault
He said that the porphyry on the
west of the west fault and the north
connecting vein must cross like the
blades of a pair of shears, in order to
bring the correlation of the vein with
a vein on the east of the east fault
The place of the crossing is, not de-
veloped, however The relative posi-
tons of the porphyry bodies, the north
connecting vein and the west vein
correlated with near the surface are
reversed in position, with reference to
north and south, on lower level.
