To these the following article from the last issue of The Northern Miner will be of vor» special interest:â€" "Every so often there comes oul C The Pas area some exciting talk of high grade or native silver,. The story is current again. This time the scene of the discoveries, which are more or less wrapped in mystery, is around Granville Lake, which is a widening out of the Churchill River, almost Sth miles straight north of The Pas. The closest operators to this area are the Nipissing crew, who are busy at Reuwâ€" deer Lake, about 75 miles away. "There is a trading post at Pukat. wagan, about 150 miles north of ‘It Pas. To this post, according to !! story, native silver has been brougst from time to time over a long period . vyears by the Indians, who, it is ss4 refuse to disclose the source. A Chi trader who followed the of the Hudson Bay Railway rep® several times last year that â€" he been handed several specimens of ver by Indians, who either did know where it came from or were willing to tell. "It would Churchill Ri Cobalt. Old msits had : Cobalt. Old tales of the COobait Q pmnsits had a similar setting. For | stance, there was the story of the M tawa lumberman who was engaged skidding timber down in South LC rain long bsfore anyone suspecteg t existence of mineral in that area. was reported many years after to ha uncovered high grade silver which did not recognize. When the Cot boom came on he, an old man, made trip up Lake Temiskaming with 1 sons and tried to reâ€"locate his earl discovery.

Possibly that 0o find is still unexploited. "Ssome years ago Dr. Goodwin, iwe dean of the Mining Paculty of Queen‘s Univserity and now the godfather of Canadian prospectors, told an intriguâ€" ing story of a big pine log apprarting in the mill booms of a saw imill om Georgian Bay, with a huge chunk of native silver sticking in its end. Those who found it assumed that the log had collected the silver fragment in a fall over a water pitch, or in a raplds. The mill people figured out the travels of the log and that summer, when water was low, a party was sent up its cdurse, searching at every fall or rapids for silver vein. The search was entirely unsuccessful, although it was repeated for several years. The fact remasms that the log collected the silver someâ€" where on that floating trip. It not an old derelict, but a newly cut tres, only one year on the way to the saw.

Someâ€" how or other it is always difficult to find the man, Indian or white, wuo shows these pieces of high grade. It is possible to contact with individuais who know someone who has seen them. One can get very detailed descriptrons of the size and general characteristics of the samples, but it is impossibhle to "One thing about the Churchill «tor that does not ring true is the reticenc of the Indians. rom the time of th first appearance of the white man i Canada there have been means faun to learn whatever the Indian kne about anything. After all, an Indisa or anyone else can go to reputai» man or company and get a square dei on a mining pisoposition.
