RICH ORE BODY

Our 40-acre lease known as the Hun
ter lease, lies near Baxter Springs,
Kan, in the heart of the worlds richest
lead and zinc district In drilling for
a millsitc four Of the eight holes went
into .creyice ground, the richest ground
for operation as huge ore deposits are
found in these creyices.
For example The Montreal property,
on its drill records wa turned down
as valueleSs by four big mining cor
poratiors, but when the shaft was sunk
into the ore, and the ore developed, il
proved TO be almost a solid formation
Of lead and zinc. And now, after three
years OF constant operation the Mon
treQl is considered one of the best pay
ing properties in the field.
Drilling on our lease shows the same
formation of orevice ground and min

logs show the lowest percentages in
assays and highest percentages in act

POSSIBLE EARNINGS

Now take your pencil; let us figure
the possible earnings when our mill is
completed. Operating in ore that will
assay at least 1870 (somc Of our ore
has assayed as high as 30 and 50Pc) we
can produce 10 tons of zinc and lead
concentrates daily. Production costs in
this field are given at $l09 per ton. But
let's be very conservative; let's dou-
bic the production cost to be absolutely
safe. At present prices 10 tons of lead
and zinc concentrates would assure us
of 5000. Our daily operating cost
double the normal cost would aggre-
gate $3.50, leaving a net daily profit
of S2,512.sO. Now multiply this by 800,
the number Of working days in a year
and you have the earnings possible
from our property as o as we get
our l5O-ton mill erected, $753,S40, or
more than 225ro profit on our entire
capital stock, and at this time we are
offering but $4,000 worth of stock and
may never have to sell more. The less
we sell the less participates in divl-
dends.
