SONORA IS IN RICH LEDGE
Two Bodies of High Grade Ore Cut at
Great Depth

Six feet of good milling ore has
been exposed in the Sonora giving
values of over forty per cent in lead.
The lead has been cut for six feet
and there is no. indication vet of
the extent. Every shot discloses
better ore and the management is
naturally enthused over the pros
pect.- As the lead was cut from
the hanging wall the expectation is
that the best ore has not yet been
discovered.
Work on the Sonora property
has been carried on for IL years
and approximately $4,000 has
been expended. In tunnel and
crosscut work over 5000 feet has
been cut. The ore body is now
tapped at depth of 800 feet and

The new mill for the Charles Dick

The machinery is arriving and being
installed, and when completed the
mill will have a capacity of $50 tons
per day. The old mill, which was
burned during the winter, had a ca
pacity of 100 tons day.
The property is being developed
and only what ore is necessary for de-
veopment purposes is being taken
out The bins are full to overflowing
with ore ready for the mill. Since
the mill burned two large ore bodies
have been discovered and those are
being developed with view to as
certaining their extent. The ore is
rich in lead, zinc and silver.

TAM 0'SHANTER HAS RESUMED
Thomas Holohan Started Work on 100
Foot Contract

The work of running the lower
tunnel on the Tam O'Shanter was re.
sumed Monday morning, Thomas
Holohan began work on a contract
for 100 feet. Two shifts of three
men each are employed. The face
of the lower tunnel is now in As feet
The property adjoins the Coeur
dAlene Nellie and has one of the
best surface showings in the Osborne
district,
A shaft was sunk some time ago
from the surface to a depth of 60
feet and was in ore all the way. A
tunnel was started to get under the
bottom of the shaft at depth of
600 feet When this tunnel was
in 1855 feet and at depth of 20
feet another ore body was encoun-
tered
1t was decided to run the lower
tunnel so as to get 800 feet depth on
this ore body shown in the upper
tunnel and 900 feet depth under the
shaft where the other ore had been
exposed.
The ore is largely gray copper and
assays have run from 95 to 225
ounces in silver. The Occur d'Alene
Nellie has shipped some of the rich
est silver ore out of this district.
averaging from $50 to IT'S ounces
in silver and with values as high as
$50 ounces in silver. The Tam
O'Shanter is on the same lead as the
Coeur d'Alene Nellie. The lead is
well defined on two of the claims.
Both tunnels are on the lead.
The property consists of five
claims and two fractions. The COM
pany has just completed a double
cabin at a cost of $3.50. There is a
blacksmith shop and all the equip
ment is in first class shape. The
proposition is we'll financed and the
development will be kept up right

Depth of 800 Feet When Second Ore
Shoot is Reached

Reports from the Hennessy-Bu
property, located six miles east of
Burke and on the Montana
line, are to the effect that the drift
has followed the lead for about 500
feet at this time 1t is estimated
that in $50 feet they will get under
the second ore shoot, which has a
fine showing on the surface.
The drift cut through one ore body
crossing through one end of it, The
body was not explored SO that it's
size is not known. When the second
ore body is reached a. depth of 500
feet will have been attained, is the
statement of J. F. Whelan, one of
the stockholders in the company.
The property is lead-silver pro-
position. Ore taken from the grass
roots is unusually rich, assaying 6S
per cent lead and as high as Ia
ounces in silver. The showing is in
the form of galena and carbonates.
One shift of men is being worked.
