NEW ZINC MINES.

The Milwaukee Journal.
The Iowa County Democrat reports
that in drilling well, blackjack
sheets 20 feet down in the lower mag
nesian limestone and about 100 feet
below the surface were found at
point two miles northwest of Mineral
Point. 1t has long been suspected
that ore would be found in the lower
magnetism, but practically, when that
rock was reached, the miners went no
further. The Galcna and Trenton
limestone has furnished the mineral,
so far. in Wisconsin. The lower
magnetism is coarse limestone lying
on the Potsdam sandstone: IT Is from
s. to 200 feet thick in this state. 1t is
the dark limestone used for building
in Madison. Over this is the St.
Peters sandstone, which is very ir-
regular in thickness, from nothing to
2l2 feet. The average is about 50 feet
over this comes the Trenton lime
stone, divided into buff at the bottom,
blue in the middle, and then more
buff, but thin. The blue shows in the
quarrics about GAINESVILLE and in the
cliff south of the road from RipOn to
Green Lake. The buff runs from %
feet thick in the lead region and there
is about ll5 feet in all. On this lies
the Galena limestone 25O feet thick
The thickness in all these layers is
variable, and all are cut through by
erosion. Almost any valley in the
lead regions will show three of them.
The mineral has been found mostly
in the upper 30 feet of the Trenton
and the lower 81 feet Of the Galena.
The ST. Peters sandstone has not
been found to carry mineral. AS it
| lies below the Trenton it has gener-
ally terminated all search for ore
when encountered, but work always
stopped at meeting the magnetism.
| All this applies to our lead region.
| In other parts both lead and zinc are
found in other formations of widely
different character. Nor is lead so
| far, found in any other part of the
state, although these formations eX-
| tend clear across from Galena to
Marinctte, and the other way to Hud-
son. The Importance of the story lies
in the fact that all the lead region is
undcrlaid by that formation, and if
| lead or zinc is once found in it, exam
| nations will be made over wide dis
trict in hopes of striking something
worth mining. If this fact is is yeri
| fled by test drilling, it will cause the
whole region to be mined over again
in deeper works. All this will affect
the Dubuque region also.
