butte Miner)

According to the latest news from
Great Falls the big 100000 power
plant of the Montana Power company
at the Great Falls Of the Missouri
river is being rushed toward compile
ton on schedule time. 1t Is expected
to be in partial operation by January
1915, and Superintendent Scott says
there should be no difficulty in having
the big project completed by early
spring, possibly by February or
March.
The entire plant will be ready in
ample time to supply power for the
first sections of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee e. st. Paul railroad to be electro
fed.
Progress Of Work.
The power plant is now about 80
per cent finished. When completed
some $4,OOO,OOO will have been spent
for construction and equipment at the
power site alone, without reference to
transmission line or other expendi-
lures The power house foundations
are completed to above water level,
and will be ready for steel construc-
ton by June Is. The tailrace is all
completed. The dam is about 40 per
cent finished. On May 20 there We're
$4,000 cubic yards of concrete in place
of a total of 100000 cubic yards. The
remaining 100000 cubic yards are be-
ing poured at the rate of 1900 to 1400
yards daily, or about $500 cubic yards
per week. The construction camp
now employs 500 men.
The equipment, when installed. is
commonly credited with a capacity of
10000 horse power, but the actual de-
liveries may be nearer 100000 horse
power The six $4,000 horse power
units are expected to work at above
their rated capacity. This is the case
at the Rainbow falls plant of the
Montana Power company, six miles
up stream, where the six 5000 horse
power units deliver during much Of
the time 10000 horse power as against
the rated $4,000 horse power.
Thompson Falls Plant.
1t is this Great Falls plant which
will supply the bulk of the power used
in the identification of the Rocky
Mountain and Bitter Root mountain
divisions of the Chicago, Milwaukee &
ST Paul railroad, comprising 400
miles west from Harlowton, Mont, to
Avery, Idaho. The Chicago, Milwau-
kee & st. Paul is expected to take
some $4,000 horse power. 1t has con-
tracted for $4,000 horse power for de-
livery before January /, 1918, and has
an option on 10000 horse power addi-
tional. The Thompson Falls, Mont,
plant now in course of construction on
Clarks Fork Of the Columbia river
having a capacity of half that of the
Great Falls plant. will help the latter
In taking care of the western end of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul

"A considerable amount Of the sur
plus power at the Great Falls plant
over and above that required for the

trification has already been contract

1t will be used in extern

evidence Of becoming an important
tonnage resource of this class of min
eral.
The Wood River mines which are
widely distributed over quite a broad
territory, We're in active operation and
making an important output when sill
yer was demonetzed. This fact dis
couraged the operators, who proceed
ed to gouge the available developed
ore resources without any regard to
maintaining the necessary develop
ment ahead, with the result that while
several of the important deposits Of
the field were lost by faulting and
exhausted, the evidences Of the two
mines l have cited, and of others in
the district, point to the conclusion
that the ore channels are deep seated.
The accompanying gangue Of the
veins Is decidedly comparable to that
of the lead ore deposits of the Occur
d'Alene district in the fact that 1t
carries a heavy percentage of siderite
or gray iron carbonate, and I am de-
cidedly of the opinion that the dis
trict affords some splendid opportun-
tiles for deep development below the
known faulted and disturbed condi-
tions where some of its important ore
bodies were cut off

2 Lark Mine.
A new discovery two miles south of
the Minnie Moore in the adjacent d.
orite formation, known as the Lark
mine, was made last summer in an old
prospect that has laid idle for the past
rs years and now shows marked evil
dence of an important resource of rich
mineral, which has been traced by
surface cuts for several hundred feet
Several of these cuts show high grade
ore below the soil covering of the
vein A prospect shaft has been sunk
100 feet deep and about so feet of
drifting and Stopping from this open

ore that have averaged so per cent

+ ers from the fact that it is contained
In the same Cambrian quartzite wall
rocks that underlies the Gilmore dis
trict limestone horizons in Lemhi
county, which constitutes both walls
Of this ore body.
The vein Is very pronounced and
steep pitching assure and it's walls APP
pear to have been subjected to very
live motion and intense buckling ac-
ton in places since the ore bodies
were formed, which has resulted in
crushing the mineral and, in fact, the
wall rocks themselves in places
through width of 100 feet to soft
sandstone. The main ore shoot that
las been developed is fully 500 feet
long and varies from few inches to
40 feet in thickness and a portion of
this ore channel nearly 800 feet long
Is true and uniform as a board and
has afforded stope with so degree
dip that has varied from to 10 feet
In thickness and has furnished a uni
form feed value of rs per cent lead
to the 100-ton concentrating mill of
the company Another section Of the
vein is buckled and folded in short
reverse angles and very badly dis
turbed and has been laid over a sur
face in such manner as to afford
quite an extensive area that could be
quarried by the removal Of quite
moderate covering Of overburden, as
shown in the accompanying cut.
Another conspicuous series of out
crops Of similar ore in a more or less
disturbed condition are exposed on
the surface 1000 feet northwest of this
showing and are now being developed
at depth from the bottom level Of the
mine by a long drift
The mill is situated in a gulch at
the foot of the mountain on which the
ore body outcrops with a conformable
dip and the situation affords splendid
opportunity for further deep develop
ment by an additional crosscut tunnel
of moderate length. With the object
of undertaking this, the company has
sunk a winze from the bottom cross
cut level No. 3, which is now down 100
feet and has shown a continuance of
the rich lead values. BY reason of
the latter crushing action to which
this fissure and it's ore bodies have
been subjected, the mineral, original
~ clean galena, has had it's crystalli-
cation almost completely destroyed
and reduced to a fine pulp. This
makes a difficult ore to separate in
spite of the fact that it carries prac-
tically nothing at all but lead mineral
and quartzite gangue, and the heavy
tailings loss is made at the fine end
of the mill by reason of a deficiency in
mechanical equipment in that depart
ment and limited supply of water,
which results in tailings carrying q
ings are being pended for further
treatment.
This deposit has many strong feat
ures and evidences of permanency. Its
greatest drawback is the fact that ii
carries very low silver values and the
product Of the mill has to be hauled
on wagons 40 miles to the nearest
railroad shipping point at Arco. In
spite of those disadvantages the mine
has made a good margin of profit over
operating cost, which is being employ
ed in the more extensive development
and exploitation of it's deposits.

body of the district was that of the
Minnie Moore mine. which has beer
developed to a depth of 1900 feet on
a flat incline, is a bedded fissure in
walls of black shale and gray lime
stone. This mine, after producing
$7,0Oo,000. encountered a fault at its
9oO-foot level and in consequence was
abandoned for number of years as
an exhausted proposition. The shaft
and its extensive slopes and levels
were subsequently pumped out and
the property purchased and operated
under the management of Mr.. Erwin
T.. Rockwell, who succeeded in solving
the fault problem and recovered the
bonanza ore shoot in all its former
richness, from which operation he
made an additional production from
this mine of something like $500, 900

it was formerly noted, when another
profound fault movement was en-
countered beyond which the ore body
has not yet been recovered.

enc way or both through Minnesota.
The fund Is apportioned among
various counties in accord with the
assessed valuation, the three large
