The shaft is 1877 feet deep.
Since the drop in mining stocks the plans of
the company have materially changed. 1t was
first planned to sink all the shafts to a common
level and then connect them with great tunnels.
This plan is still intact. but higher erosseuts
have been started several shafts instead OF
awaiting the greater depth to discover what the
ledges held. For instance. 1t was planned to
have the first crosscut at the 500 foot level on
Copper Glance 3 while it is now being driven
from the 400 foot level. and so in Copper Glance
s. where the shaft is only, 800 feet, deep, while
the first crosscut was planned to meet, the
tunnel from Queen shaft B. This would necessi-
tate a depth in the upper shaft of 525 feet.
Ultimately this shaft would. be connected with
Queen on this level by tunnel 1000 feet
long, because by this means the company will
cross section the entire country between these
two shafts and cut all IL veins between there.
