The Montana mill treated 955 tons
n ere during the past week. In the
mile the workings were extended
25 feet.
500 level-The west drift on the
Tringle vein advanced sixteen feet
and the face shows 1t to be consider
aub broken up. As a whole II is
not big enough to mill. From an
maiances the face has apparently
rathed a fault. The footwall cross
cut, driven from under the central
prion Of the Triangle stope, adj
ramed thirteen feet and has cut
about two and one-half feet of fair
Milling ore. This is probably the
same ore body encountered in the
OOtwall crosscut OF the stope above.
During the week stopping was con-
fined to the east and west end of the
Triangle stope. In the west end the
vein averages about three feet of a
fair grade milling ore. The east end
Oh the fault averages about two feet
Of good oxidized ore. The central
portion Of the stope is now filled with
waste and is ready for a large pro-
dgcti0n.
462-foot level-The west drift on
the Triangle vein advanced twelve
feet and Is in good milling ore, the
face showing the vein for about three
FEET in width. The stope above this
drift at a point fifty feet back from
the face has an average OF one and
One-half feet of a fair grade milling
ore. The stope on the Martha vein
above the level shows no change, the
elm averaging two and one-half feet
Of milling ore. On the Macdonald
vein, 1000 feet west of the shaft, the
Intermediate drift between the second
and third levels, has been driven
ahead forty-six feet to where the
vein is exposed for a width of about
three feet Of good milling ore of a
mlphide character.
j1j-foot level-rhe east drift on
ihe Martha vein advanced fourteen
feet and the face shows about two
and one-half feet OF milling ore. The
on this vein. about 100 feet
from the face, ADVANCED twelve feet
and the vein at the top has narrow
ed down and Is somewhat poor in
quality. In the central portion of
the stope on this vein very little
work has been done, as the stope is
bling carried over the west drift
Ehere the vein is -iposed and will
srerage about three feet Of very good
ore. The west drift on the
vein was advanced fourteen
Get, the face showing about two feet
4 good milling ore. The stope yer
he drift produced some good ore
the past week and shows the
'ein averaging between three and
our feet In width.
565-foot, intermediate level The.
vest drift on the South vein advanc-
q nineteen feet and shows about
wo feet of milling ore. The east
rift on the Martha vein advanced
eyenteen feet. The face shows
ONE very good ore but the vein is
thl broken up.

The crosscut is being continued into
foctwall Of the Wine 70 prospect
vein. The intermediate drift on
he Midway No. . vein about 500
west OF the shaft, advanced
feet. The vein in the face
about eighteen Inches in width,
low grade mill ore. The
topes on this level remain unchang-
765-foot level-The main cross

! now out 1883 feet from the shaft.
The face shows no change.
