nine into . concentrating property on its
sslphide ores. The mine has already
produced ovsr 81. 0Oo.O 900 in gold. silver
and lead from its surface zone Of oxide
and carbonate ores.
The shaft is down 400 feet, bot ct
the permanent vstsr level, which 10 the
Soo-foos level, the ore changed to sul-
phidss, and consequently very little
Stopping has been done below the 300-foot
level. ss the former works were unable
to successfully treat the sulphide ores.
From the 800 level to the bottom Of the
present workings there are large bodies
Of sulphides Of excellent concentrating
quality, from which . high grade ship
ping product can be produced.

8 small concentrating plant. When th,
nine has been developed to 300 feet be
low the present workings, and the ore il
foand at that depth to hold its own ss u
tonnage and value, the company viii
put up large concentrating works. TO
gether with furnaces, to reduce the con
centrates on the ground. The amount o
concentrating ore now in sight is YER,
great. and from the past production ant
