WORLDS DEEPEST MINE

The deepest mine in the world is that of the St. John Del Ray Min. ing Co, Ltd. at Morro Velho, Brazil, which has reached a vertical depth of 6, 6,426 it. below the surface. This great depth is not attained by one shaft but by a series of five, stag sered to follow the 45 deg. pitch of the lode with which 1t IS connected by crosscuts. At the Ooregum mine in India a depth of ouer 5400 feet has been reached, says the Engineering and Mining Journal Press of New York, in an answer to a subscriber who wants to know how deep mines are. In the United States, Tamarack No. 3 shaft of the Calumet Hecla Mining Co.,. in northern Michigan, is one mile deep vertically. The Kennedy gold mine on the Mother Lode in California has a vertical depth of over 4,000 it. On the Rand in South Africa, several shafts are over 5000 it.. deep and one mine. the City Deep, is planning to sink to 1000 it.
