2 IT, l.i,bcl. superintendent of the
Fullcr gold mines of the White Horse
Mining e.. is in town to confer with
General Manager Campbell concerning
important improvements in tne methods
Of further developing that property.
Mr.. Liobcl reports work progressing
slowly but surely and that the main OBJ
jcct 10 date has been to tap several
previously uneNplored lodcs in order to
obtain reliable samples of values and
10 ascertain roughly, the trend and ex-
tent of the Fuller ore bodies, N basis
for an estimate covering an extensive
enlargement Of the plant and forces in
the near future.
at il now my Conviction declared
Mr.. Liebcl "that a much richer and
more extensive ore body exists than
had ever been opened up during the
early producing days Of the properties.
Based on these new and favorable in.
dcations, | believe the company will
pass favorably on the recommendations
for a powerful electrician drilling plant
with which to open up new stopping
areas aud chambers 80 that milling may
bc commenced at the earliest moment. ~
