DEVELOPMENT DONE

- large EXPLORATION and
development work has been done dur
Ing the year with gen orally favorable
results. On Of the lowest levels but
little work OF this nature was done,
owing to the fear OF encounterng
water conditions at the Ontario
drain tunnel being unchanged IN re-
ation to our work to those stated in
last years report. The Ontario drain
tunnel has been reopened to within
500 feet OF the Ontario No. 2 shaft,
and it is hoped that the tunnl will
shortly be entirely opened up. Will
Will give the DAILY West company an
opportunity 20 extend it's drifts on the
] 200. 400, 1890 and 1850 levels to
its western boundary and also to open
up its property 10 considerably
greater depth. The physical condi-
lion OF the mine as better than It has
been for some time past The most i'm
Iortant developments of the year
We're In the quartzitc ahoye the 500
level. and opening up OF the DAILY and
parallel assures on the loo. foot level
and on the Little Bell contact, which
viii afford a consId cradle tonnage.
Respectfully submitted.

] herewith submit the following re-
port shat shows in a concise form all
work done and results obtained in the
milling department OF your company
during the year ending December a.
1906 During the first four months OF
the year the plant was only operated
during two shifts, or 10 hours out OF
each "a; during the month OF June, all
milling operations We're completely s1s-

The amount, of ore treated by the
mill during The year was T5.iiis dry
tonss and there was rejected by hand
picking from the sorting belt 4, 1888 tons
Of waste, thus the actual tonnage
crushed and mllled amounted to ILL.,
255.e tons. Owing 20 the fact that much
closer sorting was done In the mine
dent early In the yenT. To- entirely
stop the sorting out OF first class ore
and thus ALLOW the plckers n devote
their entire attention 10 the rejection
OF waste,
only one shipment OF Mill first class
was ma Dc from sorting belt during the
wear and that amounted TO ss,15S tona
There Were produced ia concentrates
n O11-253 dry IONS: add to this amount
The small tonnage OF mill frst class ana
Il Will be found that the mill produced
rom the 75.Tit9 Tons OF ore treated
a marketable product amounting 10 H.
,8iOll tons This product contained an
1vofaRe assay value OF 30sa per cent ph.
md 1850 OzF, as, per ton. thus there
Fere marketed from the min a.3s7i05t
ons OF pure lead and 5i1.lsa.s2 ounces

obtained I'm the 7l.2s5p tons OF ore
rushed and mlled were III per cent
b., and lO52 oEs ag., hence the crude
re contained s.aas9 tons OF pure lead
nd TAs,6l9 ounces fine silver. During
Ne year there was marketed 55a,77s tons
