This ore has been developed over 100
feet long by So feet wide, with an
leverage grade of SC.
Small seams of oxide ore have been
found on the 13O0-foot level, but as
yet these have not proved to be of inn
portance.
These Briggs ore bodies are scattered
over an area 2400 feet long from north
to south by 1000 feet wide and east to-
west. All of this area Is thoroughly
mineralizzed. This work has made
certain the value II the unprospected
ground between the Junction and the
Briggs Shafts, by proving that the
great and rich ore bodies cf the Bis |
bee District persist TO the most south J
ern point yet reached by development. |
Junction SHAFT:
In the early part Cf the year the
Junction Shaft was sunk to a depth of |
1895 feet. ana small station Was |
cut ON the is00-foot level. Good sui
phide ore was cut In the shaft at inter
walls from depth of 1900 feet to the
bottom, and small body OF rich ore
was developed in the 1900 station.
This proves that tho ore bearing
ground extends at least 300 feet below
the lowest working level. the 1900.
Since there is much prospecting of
well nineralized areas to be done on
the l500-foot level and above. the shaft
has been allowed 10 I'LL with water TO
that level. This will postpone ror a
considerable time pumping the water
an additional 300 feet. I
No large new ore bodies have been :
'ound during the year at the Junction
Shaft but several small seams of ore
n large areas of mineralized ground
should. with development. lead to good :
IRE bodies. Development work has
