 At the Holkham Bay group of claims, on the south side of Endicott arm, a little development work was done along the surface on the main ore body. a quartz vein, and considerable advance was made in the crosscut channel, which it is supposed will cut the vein 400 feet from it's mouth.
 Explorations at Limestone inlet have been advanced on the Enterprise and Arizona groups of claims. These prop critics are on the north side of the inlet, at an elevation of 1,000 to 1,600 feet and from one-half to quarters of mile from tide water. The ore bodies are auriferous quartz veins inclosed in granite rock, which intrudes the states and greenstones bordering the shores of the inlet. On the Enterprise claim quartz vein from 8 inches to 2 feet wide and averaging D feet has been exposed by surface excavations for several hundred feet. This vein strikes north p degrees east and dips 45 de- grees northwest; it's valuable contents is principally free gold. A similar quartz vein, averaging l1a feet in width occurs on the Arizona claims, and has been developed by surface cuts for 500 feet This vein is parallel in strike and dip to the Enterprise vein aud also carries free gold. On both of these properties other quartz veins have been discovered, but have not yet been de. yeloped. Galena, sphalerite, chalo' pyrite and pyrite are present in the veins in small amounts.
 Small developments on some of the properties in the vicinity of Windham bay and on the Sunny Day prospects. at the south entrance to Endicott arm are reported, but no extensive mining operations have been carried on in these sections.
