Feet in West Drift.

Feet in West Drift.
Since cutting the new vein 10y pros
pect tunnel at the Sonora. drift has
been run west about 40 feet, disclos-
ing a good showing of ore the entire
distance. ranging from - to is inches
wide, being a mixture of galena and
quartz Wor'I has now been discon-
tinued west md drifting started east
on the east side OF the crosscut the
showing of one is practically the same
as on the west with the chances even
more favorable for improvement as
the drift advances eastward. This is
explained in the fact that for 70 or
100 feet east of the discovery about
rs feet above the tunnel, the outcrop
of the vein is very strong and has
every indication of being the cap
ping of an ore shoot. The east drift
will soon be under this surface show
ing. When this work is accomplished
it is expected that the management
will transfer operations to the old tun-
mel S75 feet below and at a depth of
42O feet from the surface, from which
a crosscut will be run to the vein
