Or Deposits Near surfaee

Men sometimes dream OF ENORMOUS
wealth stored In the earth, below the
reach Of miners. but experts aver.
that there 10 little or no ground to
believe that valuable metallic deposits
lie very deep In the earth's crust. Such
deposits. It 10 said. are made BY un.
derground waters. and owing to the
pressure on the rocks at great depths,
the, waters are confned to a,shell near
the surface. With few exceptions. ore
deposits become too lean to repay
