 Sinking on the shaft on the Loma Prieta property in Copper Basin is | going ahead steadily. A continuous ore body has been determined for more than B feet, and with every foot of increased depth the showing improves. A carload of high grade ! chalco-pyrite ore has been shipped as a test from the Loma Prieta. All work at the mine is now under the personal direction of John Livezey, who has taken up his residence at the camp.
 Still Good Mine Recent exploration in the old Sen ator mine has resulted in new and valuable ore bodies being proven. In the zone where the Treadwell vein was penetrated a large tonnage was opened up, giving values of $50 in gold and copper. The strike occurred at in ho A1I fnnnol The Senator, one of the units of the Commercial Mining Company, was be- lieved to have been worked out years ago.
