have been given years lease on a
portion of the Christmas main shaft
dump and are working steadily. In
July they shipped three cars. Some of
the ore was carefully sorted and all
went to sampler. High returns were
received when 1t Is considered that
the ore was from dump. One car
returned $2240 per ton.
These youngsters are working be-
side two men they have employed.
They can pick out piece of ore from
bunch Of muck as well as the most
expert ore sorter In the camp. The
quality of the rock in the dump they
are working appears good and in all
probability they will be able to ship
fuil three cars month for some time.
The dump was made in the early DAYS
when ore running $40 per ton was
thrown out. Now many big mines are
working on ore that average $50 to SIS
per ton.
