New Ore Body.
The ore was extracted from a newly
discovered deposit between the mid
die and lower tunnels, and was taken
out from both tunnels at depth of
from 500 TO SEQ feet from the surface
Manager Dougherty says the ore was
deposited from assures making in the
lime. and very much resembles the
Tintic ore deposits. They have not Yet
reached the sulphide zone. although
indications Of sulphide ores have been
found in a number of Places
we already have nearly half a
foot OF snow up there. and as our
/ clubhouse is located at an altitude OF
5000 feet we hope this open weather
may continue so as not 10 interfere
with our operations said Mr.. Dough-
erty. Not far from the Carbonate
Hill property the mOunteins run up so
high that the surveyors have a mOnu-

The Carbonate Hill is located about
four miles north of the Morgan

Colonel George A. Henry was down

the Morgan-Crescent Friday night the

broke into some red oxide copper ore
which looked very good. and that the
face looks better after every shot
They are now in eighty feet. and rapid
progress is being made toward the

District Looks Good.
Things generally are looking very
promising in the Morgan district, ac-
cOrding 10 both Mr.. DOugherty and
Colonel Henry. They look for that
district TO make quite a stir next sum-

property and the encouraging condi-
ton at the mine that they are anxious
10 see the work pressed forward with

There seems TO be little dubiety I'm
the minds OF mining men but that the
Morgan district is only an exposure a
little further TO the north OF the Park
City system of mineralized veins.
which also continue on their north

and even into Canada, still further TO
the north.
