Generous bodies of $28,000 to $76,000 to the -ton ore. afe found in this mine. Some lots of , this rock samples from $8 to $10 per pound. A 9-foot ledge averages $2 per pound all the way across its face. , It is expected to take a million dollars out of this mine during the next 16 days, when its lease expires. -:;.
