Capital: $400,000, divided into 1,600,000 susres of o par value of 25c each.

Incorporation: Working under the Ontario Com- pany’s Act, non-personal liabilicy.

Treasury: Fund 690,000 sharesfrom the sale of | which development funds will be received and expended in placing the mise on a dividend paying basis. Mime: The miniog location which it is the special pro & p f

—_

vince of thie Cou:pany to develop, is known as the “Sirpar or roe Manirov.” I: 1* technica'ly known as the H P 259 loca- tion, and lies ‘n the Raioy Lake Mining District of Ontario.

The Vein : Is 4 feet wide at the surface or wider and ihe width increases as the shaft is sunk, until ata depth of 45 feet it is about 7 feet across,

Work: In addition to sutfece prospecting and tracing the vein over the property, a shaft has been sunk to a depth of 45 feet, and a cortract has been given to sink 30 feet farther and to drift for 60 feet on the vein. When this ix completed further and permanent development will be arranged for.

Mill Test: Eighteen tons of ore from the dump were milled andthe gold’ retorted at the “Keewatan Reduction Works” which went $9.60 to theton. Five hundred pounds from the pay*treak was put tbrough, which went eo heavy in gold that extra quick silver had to be put on the plates to catch it all.

Concentrates : These were only pertially saved, but we have one thousand pounds on hand which we sampled and had assayed by Professor Donald which showed $153.09 to theton. If all the Concentrates are as rich as this, the whole cost ot operating the mine can be paid from them alone, leav- ing the free milling gold for dividends.

Assays : By Milton Hersey, Eeq.,B.A.Sc., Conault- ing Chemists of the C P R of Montreal, average sample of dump (not knowingly putting in any of the pay streak, which was carefully sacked, as it was extracted from the shaft) went $54.19; also samples from the bottom and aides of the shaft went $72.00 to the ton.

By Professor Donald, M A, Professor ot Chemistry Bishop’s College, sample taken fromthe pay streak, went $1 585.05.

By various persons the following rusulis where obtuined: $14, $39.60, $615.

Plan of Operation ; As soon as the work now nn- der contract has been completed,our plan is to erecta two Stamp mill in such @ way that eight more stamps can be ad- ded later oc, when the mine is suffiziently developed to supply ore rapidly enough to keep that num ber of stamys going night and day,

Output: Would be more than enough to keep the two stamps going, when we would be able to see and prove the value of our mine and we would aleo receive money steadily from the ore to help pay for development, thus rendering it ua necessrry to sell many Treasury shares and enabling us to command a better price for them when offered,

Profits : The tota) cost of mining this ore meed not exceed $250 per ton,and estimating it at $20.00 there would be a yield of $18,000 per month, crushing 30 tons a day.

The property contains 67 acres, more or less, situated on the per Manitou Lake, in the Rainy River District of Ontari . distant about sever miles from Denmark at the head of the

and about thirty-three miles from Town of Wabi Station on the main line of the Canadian Pacific Rellaane ‘ss both points there are stores where nearly all necessary supplies can te obtained &t reasonable cost. Communication is carried on dur- ing the winter by horses and sleighs and ia summer by boate, with che exception of seyen miles over a Government

Shaft and Lode : The shaft is down 45 feet and time bered for sbout 10 feet and from there down it is about 6x8 on «| slight incline partly following the hanging wall.

The vein is exceptionally well defiaed and regular, and ite a “fiscure” vein of a“banded” structure, it shows the full width” of the shait—this would make the vein over 7 feet deep.

Mill Sites, Timber, &c, There is avery favorable |

mil] sight East of the shaft, on the Lake Shore, and as the rises towards the shaft,ore could be supplied to the mill by grays ity tramway at small cost, %

There is a large quantity of dry timber on the sufficient for fuel requirments for some tixne to come; logs and mill timbers can be obtained adjacant to the lake,

Recommendation. Considering that this location is so favourably situated for mining and milliag, and, jadging from the character of the vein and quality of ore exposed in the shaft,I am of the opinion that this location will develope into s

ery valuable mine on a comparatively smal! outlay, and havend esitation in recommending it as asound investment. Be
