Within four months after shipments
were commenced up till October rs,
Electric Point had shipped 5000 tons
of lead ores to the Trail smelter, thus
breaking all shipping records of this
state and of many others. The pro-
perty was only discovered sixteen
months ago and has already produced
approximately 100000 pounds of me-
tallic lead as the average content of
both carbonates and sulphide ores is
conservatively placed at 80 per cent.
Mining Truth, a Spokane publication,
states that the entire expense of plac-
ing the property in shape for produc-
ton has already been repaid and that
very substantial surplus now rests
in the treasury. No intimation of divi-
dend action has yet been made, but it
is believed no disbursement will be
made for some time. Plans of the
management include a long tunnel from
the south to provide economical outlet,
together with other improvement work.
AT present shipments are being main
tained at the rate of from fifty to sixty
tons a day.

over so per cent in their shaft and
drifts, all of which is in carbonate lead
ore averaging from 3.5 per cent near
the surface to 112 per cent at the bot
tom of the shaft 100 feet below the
surface This company began opera
tions last July and from ten to twelve
men have been employed at the proper
ty since that time. Much surface work
was done in locating the vein, thirty
seven cuts and prospect shafts were
sunk, many of which disclosed large
deposits of hematite iron and low grade
lead carbonates. A vein has been dis
closed in these cuts extending 1900
feet being from ten to twenty-siX feet
wide. A shaft is now being sunk on
the vein and is now down 100 feet and
seventy feet of drifts were run at a
depth of fifty-five feet, all in low
grade lead carbonate ore. Drifting is
now progressing at a depth of 100 feet
The entire shaft and drifts are in ore
and the lead content in average sam
pies taken at various depths in the
shaft show marked increase in lead
as the shaft reaches a greater depth
