What is thought to be the upward

weeks ago has nov been encounter
ed on the 1166-foot level in what is
known as north cross-cut 3, which
passed through a width of a little
more than l foot of very rich ore,
drifting on which will be commenced
shortly, and the north cross-cut will
be extended to determine whether
this is the vein of whether it is still
further north.
This vein on the 18th level con-
tinues to show splendid ore in both
the east and west drifts, which are
being run on it, and in the west
drift the orebody is widening, and
we'll maintains the splendid values it
showed when the vein was first en-

shows some improvement this week,

the vein is still low grade.

countered last week on the 18th
level continues to show bodies of
very good ore in both the east and
west drifts, which are being driven

be developed on this level. Raising
on the rein from the level above is
still progressing in good ore.
