Atlantic coast, thru senegal and
Morocco. and beneath the straits OF
Gibraltar.
Carried over a distance OF some
5000 kilometcrH, the power originally

wide area In the hanging wall as ex-
plorations there were uniformally
unsuccessful. This condition was due
10 a fault which Is found to exist In
the dikes in the narrow belt OF non-ore
bearing slate. A slip seems TO have
occurred whereby the dixie in
the hanging has dropped down suffic-
iently SO that drifts driven out from
the ore measures ON the foot invaria-
bly, encountered the dixie material. II
now developes that these attempts 10
pierce the hanging wall territory were
not extensive enough to bring the
operators into the ore measures that
lay there.
Recently, the Newport mine, which
pioneered in sinking through the dikes
was confronted with the necessity Of
finding more ore reserve in order 10
maintain its position. A systematic
search was instituted. The operators
were successful in penetrating the
hanging wall belt OF states and II was
found that they contained big body
OF ore so that the Newport today Is
said TO have larger ore reserve than
ever.
The Oliver Iron Mining Co. had re
leased the old Norrie mine with the
belief that the ore reserve was ex-
hausted. A company of local capital
lists who had taken over the property
heard of the exploration at the New
port and made similar explorations
with the result that new ore reserves
were found and the property was leas-
ed to the Jones and Laughlins inter
ests.
The Montreal owners the Oglebay-
Norton interests, made similar explor-
alton at their property with the re.
suit that the Montreal has been given
a much greater ore reserve, one suffic
iently large TO warrant the expendi
ture OF an immense amount of none,
in the sinking OF a new shaft and th,
electrical equipment of the property.
The new developments at the Go
gebic range mines increase the known
reserves OF high grade ore very mucl
and add to the value OF the Michigan
portion OF the Lake Superior district.
