Pans taken all along the outcroppings were excellent but as the vein dropped towards the railroad level, fall of approximately 5000 feet, the pans ran considerably higher The ledge is perceptible, at a distance of 800 feet from the track. He is convinced that his find will make a good mine Already he has driven tunnel in six feet. Several assays taken at random have been forwarded to the Juneau assay office.
