ing been leached out. The rest of the
ve'n is good mill ore, running from
twenty dollars to thirty dollars per
ton. A drift was run to the north for
more than 300 feet, but as is often
the case close to the surface, the
values are spotted. The ore was
screened, however. and the screenings
were high enough in grade to stand

the dump, II is figured, will average

that was sunk from the tunnel level
was in high-grade ore all the way
down, some Of 1t ~assaying more than
$1,000 per ton. the entire product from
the winze being shipped to the
smelter.
The main shaft Is sunk on the north
end OF the General Grant claim and
is sunk of the vein. which 1t cuts
at a depth of 225 feet. 1t was cross
cut at the 160-foot level. where it is
nearly six feet wide. and drifts run
north and south. The north drift
has good values for 230 feet. the
ore varying from three to twelve feet
in width. Where the vein Is shown
to be twelve feet wide by a crosscut,
there is an e~ighteen-inch streak which
samples 1850 per ton, practically all
gold. At another place where 1t is
shown to be ten feet wide. it sam
pied ninety-eight dollars per ton,
clear across. 1t Is figured that the
entire length and width of this shoot
will average better than thirty-five
dollars per ton.
At the 230-foot point in the north
drift an intrusive flow was en-
countered which continued for seventy
feet, in which there were no values.
After this was gone through. ore was
again found end In Crivinz twenty
feet the values increased from six
teen to se~venty-three dollars per ton
for a width of three and one-half feet
There is little doubt, judging from nu-
merous showings further north on the
vein, that the drift is now in another
ore shoot which will prove as large
If not larger, than the first n opened
up.
Where the vein was cut at the 225-

feet wide. an increase of two feet In
width in sixty-five feet OF depth. and
the average values were better thar
