Development Work
"The advance at the various mines
was as follows:
"Combination. 41a feet: Mohawk. 7s5
feei; Clermont, 1lS5 feet, Red Top. 1850
The amount advanced was much less
than in January. but The results were
more more fortunate. The decline in amount
done is due TO some extent 10 the short
ness of the month. but more particular
~ 10 a partial breakdown OF the Mohawk
moist, which prevented that machine from
TO use moro air. This made 1t necessary
to curtail development a little.
Neglecting as usual the mere tracing
out OF known orc bodies between levels
and combining attention 10 exposures OF
new ore on main levels. we find the fol-
lowing facts:

The 1000-ft. level Of the Clermout Is
developing very favoraby. About Feb

good ore. II assayed from s10 to 800

for the las, two days of the month the
car samples showed very good ore.
Forty-one tons averaged s33 There is
some reason IN hope that this ore shoot
may prove better on the 1000-ft. level
than on the 900.
"A development that cannot be other
than important is the discovery in the
last two days Of the month. OF the CON
tinuation OF the Mohawk ore shoot on the

is eight feet thick where cut in a cross

the car samples taken thus far show an
average OF only 50, This latter ore must
have been mixed with a good deal of
waste.
Little needs be added in the way Of
general remarks. The property Is in
good condition throughout and the pros
