In one of two of the eases quoted of mines reâ€"opened this year the. mines have since closed down temporarily, but this is more than offset by unmen tioned mines now opened up with ‘‘A Remarkable Qutlook‘‘ Says FTor onto Journal. good prospects â€" Cousequently, it is not too much to say that the article in The Canadian Mining News, deâ€" spite its apparent tone of optimisim, is after all only a very conservative and careful statement of facts that are quite evident to those who live ir the North Country and study its prospects at close range. The Canâ€" adian Mining News says:â€" ‘This year th@re is a eutlook for the north country. Duâ€" ring 1916 development work has been resumed by no less than 18 companies in Poreupine,. these being the Anchor ite Apex. Augerite, Chisolm _ Vet, Davidson, Dome Extension, _ Gold Reef. Inspiration, Jupiter, Maidensâ€" MacDonald, Melntyre, Newray, Per severance, Platt Vet, Premjer, Ross.

Melntyro bpesan dividend@ payments in 1917 and st least two other companies are exâ€" pected to join the dividend list from Porrupine in the next six months. ‘‘Kirkland Liake has one dividend payer, but by the ‘end of 1917 wil probablys Iimve. wo ‘or. three more Poston Creek is now the most promâ€" sing@ new gold mine and camp in the north conntry and will make lustory during the present yéear. This pro perty has developed a million and a nel"* the finest tonnage of bonan za ore even seen in that country and is getting ready to treat this ore with out shipping and plans are maturing for the building of a mill on the ground. Cobalt is still on a prosper us basis, although the eamp has had a history almost equal to that of the Comstock Lode and has paid to stock: holders in dividends to date approxt mately $70,000,000. _ Several of the nines there are operating the. Callow flotation process, providing for an inereased recovery of around two ounces of silver from each ton of ore treated. This adds something like 8140 per ton to the value of Cobalt ore and enhanced prices for silver are likewise vastly important in the revâ€" enues of the great silver ecamp. Geoâ€" logy is also playing a prominent part in the rejuvenation of Cobalt, rotably in the eases of Temiskaming and Beaver, where exploratory work has procceded below the diabase still with reésults which are reported to be very encouraging, and in the draining of some of the lake areas, where a large acreage of silver veins and veinlets been exposed. We understood the other day that the Kerr Lake, had uncovered another silver sidewalk. We bolieve the future of Ontario absolutely disceounts the possibility of bearish influences intervening to any material extent. Come war or come peace, we believe the destiny of this section is fully assured. With the reâ€" turn of peace, new eapital will seek this great province with its vast unâ€" developed resources and the labor market, which has been frightfully liquidated and depleted, due to the demands of the war, will be augmentâ€" ed and workers will be supplied, with cheaper material and lesser living costs, to carry: forward Ontario‘s matehless destiny, ‘mid snow and ico, market, which liquidated and demands of the ed and worker 2N OFf THE U 5.
