Rosita and will use it in the work OF
cleaning out the mine. Then large
double motion hoist is to be placed
on the property and ore will be taken
out for shipment. There are large
ore reserves in the Terrible, and one
day it was one of the richest lead
producers in the southern part Of the
state. The report of the company e
expert shows the mine to be even bet
