thoroughly. The objection was over
ruled.
The witness said he could not settle
the question without more definite in
formation.
Tne ground between the faults is
called lode, the witness said, because
the faults bound it and form limits to
the ore.
If you had ore outside the faults,
the veins having the same dip and
strike as those between, would it then
be lode?" asked Mr.. Hughes.
1t might not" said Mr.. Bulky.
NOW, haven't you just such bodies
outside the faulted ground here?"
The witness answered in the Mega
tive.
sample of ore, part of which was
clay, was shown the Witness and he
testified that the clay was like that Of
the clay selvage in the faults. The
sample was put in evidence.
The witness testified that the sample
very likely came from near the fault
on the 600 level near the 81 raise. He
said, however, that the extreme limit
OF the fault plane at the point in ques
ton is but 80 feet west of the line, in
dicating it on the map.
Another sample was said to be of a
sandy character and like some of the
material in the fault crevices. Still

formation. The witness could not tell
exactly what the samples were, with
cut knowing where they came from.
A fourth sample. the witness said,
might have come from an intermediate
fault slip.
Then you do find material elsewhere
similar to that found in the fault crew
ices, where the motion and other phe-
nomena you described took place."
said Mr. Hughes
Yes, sir; in the subordinate fault
slips, very little motion may have
occurred in those planes. The clay is
different, however" said Mr.. Bulky.
The cross-examination ended at half
past three in the afternoon. The re-
direct examination of the witness was
taken up by Mr.. Patterson.
Mr.. Bulky said that he had con-
cluded that one of the samples men
toned came from one of the sub-slips
because of its character The color and
texture of the clay, differing from those
of the fault crevice clay, were respon-
sible for his conclusion.
The witness said that the samples
just introduced We're composed of frag-
mentary material, containing granite
and some ore. He recognized them as
crushed material He gave the point
on the 800 level from which sample
of porphyry was taken.
matter in the crevices is on the west
side of the clay land in the east fault
and on the east side of the clay land
in the west fault. He said that the
clay from the faults is rather thicker
and tougher than that from the small
sub-faults.
state whether. within the walls OF
a lode, you are likely to have different
ore chutes," said Mr.. Patterson.
Yes" said the witness.
Except as such ore chutes are con-
fined within the walls of the lode, are
there any rules to determine their dip
or striker"
mo, sir"
Except as to the walls, is there any
thing to control the apices?"
No"
1t was shown by the testimony of the
witness that a certain vein first has
a northerly dip and then southerly
dip between the 500 and 600 levels and
that it's upper part is not disclosed.
Have you any assurance that un-
disclosed veins keep the dip last not
ed as they go through unopened ground
to the surface?" asked Mr.. Patterson.
mo, SIR" said the witness.
IF the dip changes below it may
change above?"
