the geologist's standpoint. A geolo
Kin??r in that the former endeavor
ed to fathom, by an examination of
the rocks and their occurrence^ the
conditions under which the rocks
and minerals were formed &ad to
forecast 01* outline; after this had
be?? dene, the general conditions
under which the minerals to ques
tion might be successful!; sought
The engineer, he continued, wan oc
cupied with solving the physicsl dif
ficulties.
Commenting ou permanency. Mr
Smith said that he was satisfied, af
ter an examination o( a number of
specimens selected here, that the
minerals oame from a deep sdurce
and that the veins were permanent
This statement he modified by ***?
i?g that no prediction of faultless
veins could be ttfade, nor couH It
be stated that the veins would uot
pinch out when the granite forma*,
lion was reached, Depth from ?
mining standpoint, however. He ualtl,
?as undoubtedly possible, and that
there are many promises of suceeas
I til mines The region without a
doubt Is mineralised He stAted
that I here wwre several types of
ores In evidence, smong them fn??
milling an<! base ores, as well as
pyrites and gslenaa, both of which
?nut led gold, but required rotating
And crushing to extriMH the min
eral The geologist warned his
auditors not to think that iwy
prospect wss s mine, but ooiftplo
mented the remsrk by stating that
big successes were possible with
further and more complete develop
ment. '
The speaker advlsvd the prosper
! tors not to force the development
work, addiug that expensive equip
ment snd much dead work were
Justified only in regions that sere
well developed and where the ore
bodies have been fully established.
Gophering, he said, would be the
proper method of learning about the
on- bodies of the district at the
present time There is much to
lesrn about the composition of the
veins of the district with depth, he.
added In a successful camp, min
ing Is not much of a gamble, and
he admonished the quarts men to
learn the content of their ore bodies
before making any lavish expendi
tures of money and labor.
The geologist then called the at
tention of his hearers to ths fact
that very few of the veins in the
district hsve been sampled for the
full width of the vein. This, he
brought out, was vital and neces
sary More any calculation could
be made on the worth and value of
the ore contained in the ledge
In reply to many question^ that
have been put to him while tp the
canin, as to whether or not
young to answer that as yet. V The
basis for a good camp It here al
ready. according; to the speaker's
remarks, but many of the claims
staked would be bound to proto un
