have appeared which assay % per
cent copper, So ounces silver. lb1s
per cent lead. and 0.3 ounces gold.
The most interesting and certainly
the mott important feature OF the
great discovery is the coming in or
a high percentage OF copper. IL
should be borne in mind that this ore
Is found far below the lowest old
sorkings and is In entirely virgin
ground. The ore mass has o been
followed down 235 feet and has
gradually and steadily grown richer
until II is a bonanza of magnitude.
On the 400-foot level, in virgin
ground, Eureka-Croesus has made
another very important strike, th1
ore assaying over 40 ounces silver,
20 per cent lead and o. ounces gold.
This strike is about 3OO-feet from
the top OF the bonanza winze on the
same level.-Eureka Sentinel
