It also is stated that the downward continuation of the ore zone has been proved by diamond drilling to a depth of 750 feet. Shaft sinking is under way and present plans call for a tctal depth of 1,00 feet. The mill is treating ore at the rate of 175 tons per day, which is understood to be about its total capacity under the present Diesel qpower arrangement. When electric power is available it is stated that the mill can be stepped up 300 or 400 tons, and work on a more extensive scale will be started.

It expands iess by heat than any other metal and with th> excepâ€" tion of iridium and osmium, is the heaviest form of matter known. It is unaffected by atmozspheric action and is not acted on by uny single aclid. As a consequence of these properties, it is much used for electrical and chemical apparatus., and for jewelry. Platinum can be alloyed easily with most of the common metals and the alloys are used for a variety of purâ€" poses. Copper and platinum produce the artificial gold alloy. Good Feldspar Deposits, Regarding the feldspar deposits in the same district, and in connection with which the reported platinum find was made, these are understood to be Platinum is found only in a native state, usually cccurring in small, glisâ€" tening granules of steelâ€"gray colour, which always contain an admixture of several metals, iridium, rhodium, pallaâ€" dium. osmium and ruty>nium, most of which are rarely found except in @assoâ€" clation with platinum. Sometimes, however, it is found in masses the size of a pigeon‘s egg, wo‘ghâ€" ing 10 or even 20 ounces It was coriâ€" ginally found in Peru in 1823, but now the Ural Mcuntains of Siberia, provide 95 per cent. of the world‘s supply.

The scene of the reported discovery is easily reached from Pembroke, beâ€" ing located about a mile and a half from Indian station, on the CNR., 18 or 20 miles from town. There is also a good motor road from here, a ccunty hishway extending to Alice slation, some 10 miles from town, while from that point there is a fair country road to Hiers® farm, which is but two or three miles from where the claims have already been staked. Should a min‘ng rush set in, as now seems highly probâ€" able, Pemioroke will be the logical, fYace for prospectors to outfit and cbtain supplies, and it may be that this sumâ€" mer Pembroke‘s unemployed will find unexpected work in a new mining field. The discovery, if it lives up to expectaâ€" tions, should mean much to the town in many ways. scense of Discovery is from Town of Pembr Algonguin Park, Familiar With Platinum. Mr. Robeits, who has had experiâ€" ence in platinum mining in South Afriâ€" ca, had assays made of samples takeon su% by him, and it is understood these proved most satisfactcery. The discovery was keot secret, as during the winter. with the ground heavily covered with snow, little could be done in the way of prospecting. However, with the coming of srring, Mr. Roberts staked some 20 or 25 claims on behalf of himself and members of his syndicate, and Weld>n Besautty, CE., of Pembroke, is now on the scene making a survey of these claims. s 11 the mining industry of Canada, was revealed Thursday. It concerns thne finding of platinuim, one of the most valuable of minvrals, in the township °f Frasor, within absut 20 miles of Pembroke, and in close proximity to the Canadian Naticnal Railway, near the border of Algonquin Park.
