ORE OF excellent GRADE in
GREAT BEND DRIFT and RAISE

the timbering in raise and drift, as
the ore breaks readily and requires
timbring to render the workings
safe for the miners. The first raise,
driven near the face of the drift.
was extended to a point where the
ore was of lower grade and 1t has
been shown that the ore-shoot rakes
at rather flat angle to the east.
With this fact in view, another
raise is being driven nearer the
point where the ore-shoot was pen
etrated, farther to the west. and
this raise has been yielding ore Of
excellent grade, assaying from $50
to $50 per ton. Since the ore-shoot
was cut by this drift, all the ore ex-
tracted in development is said to
have averaged above SIS per ton.
1t is planned to sink a winze on the
ore, farther to the east. and new
levels will be driven to the vein
both above and below the 3OO-f,ot
level.
Within a few days it will be pos
sible to again proceed with the main
drift, which will be extended ulti-
mately to the eastern end-line of
the Great Bend property. Near this
point lessees operating on the Dia
mondfield Daisy have extracted some
ore of shipping grade recently.
At a point about 60 feet east of
the present face of the drift a CROSS
cut will be driven north through the
vein, which is about 40 feet wide
here, to pick up a shoot of rich ore
found by early day lessees, who
made the discovery in a winze.
