g ODDFELLOWS‘ HALL § Saturday, December 15th â€"The Opeépeesway Lake area includes the township of Benton, Mallard, Osâ€" way, Huffman and parts of Esther, Finâ€" gal, Arbutus and Eric, in the district 6of Sudbury, and lies between the Three Duck Lakes and Swayze areas, both of which have been prominent in the pubâ€" lic eye of late years, states the report. As a result of the keen interest and apparent success attending operat.ons in the Swayze area from 1930 to 1933 rogether with gold discoveries and a mild rush into the central part of Malâ€" lard township in the summer of 1933, a season of intensive prospecting was anâ€" ticipated. This expectation, however, was not reallzed, the area being pracâ€" tically devoid of prospectors all season. outlining the geology of the Opeepeesway Lake region, the report states that there are no operating proâ€" perties in the area at present, and only one on which exploration work was done during the past season, namely. that of the Woman River Gold Syndiâ€" cate. The discovery of gold values on the Mogr.dge and Hermiston groups in the central part of Mallard township in the summer of 1933 led to the staking 6of more than 100 claims lying on either side of the Opeepeesway River. The Mogridge showing was diamond drilled in the fall of the same year by the N. A. Timmins Corporat.on. The results of 500 feet of drilling in four short holes for a length of 520 feet are said to have been disappointing and no furâ€" Revival of Interest in the West Shining Tree Area ‘‘A very interesting and helpful repor on the Opeepeesway Lake area, Sud bury ~district, with nsotes on Swayz Horwood Lake and West Shining Tre areas, by H.

Frevious work has centred about the famous Ribble vein, which has already been developed by a 2â€"compartment shaft to a depth of 300 feet and a limitâ€" ed amount of lateral work on the 109. 200 and 300â€"foot levels. According to company estimates, previous data inâ€" dicate 37,000 tons of 0.37 ounce ore alâ€" ready blocked out above the 3rd level Furthermore, the old dump is estimatâ€" ed by officials to conta‘n from 7,000 to 10,000 tons of cre, averaging 0.39 ounces gold per ton. It is reported that the new interests plan on prosecuting vigorous campaign of underground geâ€" velopment, which will include further lateral work on the levels already estabâ€" lished as well as sinking to deeper horiâ€" zons. Operations were resumed on August 4 under the direction of Frank Milne, resident mine superintendent. To date a crew of 14 men have been engaged in clearing the ground and putting the steam plant, buildings ,and other equipâ€" ment in firstâ€"class condition in preâ€" paration for dewatering the shaft. It :s expected that the shaft will have been dewatereg and underground deâ€" velopment well under way early in Noâ€" vember. Lake Caswell Mines. Limited.â€"This company is a recent reorganization of the Burvan Gold Mines, Limited. The property consists of 4 leased claims in Macmurchy township adjo.ning the Neville Canadian group on the east. It was originally owned by the West Tree Mines, Limited, which in 1926 turned it over to the Canadian Chamâ€" pion Reef Mining Company, Limited. On the dissolution of this company early in 1933, the property was acquirâ€" ed by the Burvan Gold Mines, Limited. Early in July, a crew of 14 men, unâ€" der the direction of Thomas Bullock, were ongaged in putt.ng the old mining plant and other equipment in condition for further underground development. At the time of our visit in October the shaft was being kept dry while the results of sampling of the underground workings by Paul M. Hedley were aâ€" waited. In the meantime, an aggresâ€" sive programme of surface explorat.on was being conducted with the result that several new quartz leads have already been uncovered. In all, 40 quartz veins varying from mere stringâ€" ers to some two feet in width, have been located; doubtless many of these veins will prove to be duplications. The majority of the veins show only moderate mineralizat.on, but in places spectacular high grade gold specimens have been obtained. _ Bilmac Gold Mines, Limited.â€"This company. which was incorporated about October 1, is an amalgamation of four groups of cla‘ims in Macmurchy township adjoining the Lake Caswell property on the east. The hoidings of the new company consist of two claims owned by the White Rock Mining Comâ€" pany, Limited, one claim formerly helg by the Atlas Gold Mines, Limited, one claim of the Wm. McVi.ttie estate, and two claims formerly owned by Harvey Kirkland Mines. Limited. Considerable development work has already been done on each of these groups. Underâ€" ground work at the White Rock in the winter of 1933 carried the main shaft to a depth of 175 feet, where 560 feet of drifting was done. A level was also established at a depth of 65 feet, where some drifting and stoping operations were carried on. The original shaft On the property was sunk to a depth of 65 feet at a point 180 feet northwest of E. B. James Group.â€"This group con sists of 11 claims, 2 of wh.ch are sur veyed. It is located in the central par of Asquith township about a quarte shaft. Operations iwere just getting well under way at the time of our visit. The old plant and equipment at the White Rock were being overhauled and preparations were being made to deâ€" water the main shaft, where it is planâ€" ned to concentrate on further underâ€" ground â€" development.

For many years the operating properties named above have been served by telephonic communication and an excellent motor road connecting with Westree station ‘cn the C.N.R., 60 miles north of Sudâ€" bury. At present, this road is being put in still better condition as part of the relief project of the Ontario Governâ€" ment and, at the same time, it is beâ€" ‘ing extended northeast toward Tyrrell township.
