JAMES DOUGLAS
TELLS OF TRIP
TO QUEBEC Mine

After months of travel in foreign
countries James S. Douglas is back
in this city reporting the very inter-
esting progress of prospecting work
going forward at the Noranda Exten-
sion mine, a property on which the
U. v. x. holds an option and in which
it is eXpending 100000 in develop
ment work.
Douglas states that the Noranda eX-
tension is very close to the great Nor
anda mine situated in the northwest
ern part of the province OF Quebec
The work being done at the extension
is down 200 feet at which dept across
cutting is under way toward the great
Noranda.
The U. v. x. chief states that a
little very high grade ore has been en-
countered and that no trace of it has
been found SO that diamond drilling
will be resorted to to see if the vein
runs downward.
Douglas comments on a very inter-
esting phase of the exploration. He
says that the workings are under q
lake and that contrary to ordinary
conditions the mine is very dry. This
is due, he says, to thick layer OF, silt
on the lake bottom which seals the
cracks in the rock so that no water
seeps down into the mine.
The Noranda people are just COM
pleting smelter which is under the
management of Kenneth Williams.
This plant will be in operation within
month and Douglas says that it is
situated less than half mile from
the collar of the Noranda Extension
shaft so that if they find any ore of
high enough grade they will know
what to do with it.
Following an extended sojourn at
the Noranda properties Douglas was
called to France on business and spent
four weeks in that country recently,
coming back to his home here to
take up matters in connection with
his interests in this district.
