The visitors were surprised with the showings and with the evidence of energetic development on this pro- perty. The Very serviceable plant is work- ing.smoothly and a force of 50 men is employed in active development work. No attempt will be made to erect a mill until the ore bodies have been thoroughly explored and the size of the ore bodies determined. Assays will be made to ascertain the values so that when the time comes to erect a mill management will know what kind of a mill to erect, and have other data which will make the de- velopment of this property possible on a paying basis. It was found that the large vein on the Davidson section of the Crown Chartered property is from 16 to 20 feet wide with Visible gold showing almost all the way across the vein at the lOO-loot leVel. Suflicient as- says which have been made are high in values. but as they have not done sutlicient development work to show the extent of the ore bodies the gen- eral results will not he made public at the present. time. far better manner thnn hefure the disaster whirh (H'vl‘tmik i’nrrupine last July.
