THE RICHEST ORES WERE NEAR THE SURFACE; THESE WERE MINED BY STRIPPING THE HANGING WALL OF THE VEIN OVER AN AREA 70 BY 120 FEET. IN ABOUT 1914, A 4400-FT CROSSCUT WAS DRIVEN FROM THE WEST SLOPE OF PALMER MTN IN AN ATTEMPT TO INTERSECT THE VEIN AT A DEPTH OF 1560 FT (UMPLEBY, 1911). ; INFO.SRC : 1 PUB LIT |
