The Mineral Point Zinc compa.
ny commenced very systematic
zinc mining in the deep shaft al
the Memphis mine the latter part
OF the week, Three sets Of miners
working in shifts of eight hours,
were pnt to sinking. The ground
brought up shows handsomely in
zinc sulphide, and affords add.
tional proof that at various depths
depending largely upon the con.
tour OF the country, the flaor spar
zone is passed and zinc and lead
ores fill the assures, instead of
huor spar.
