Supp1amentFry to the Lilly Copper Kin~ Group.
Pursuant to your r equea t , I have just 10 ked over the ground of the additional properties to the Lilly-Copper King group and of \Wlioh no mentionin;r, W!Hl made in my brief report e,t i,he time when only 24 claims were ~noluded in the group.
The properties aitjoining this group on st'vera1 sides wh i ch you now own, is in my judgment a very valuable addition, not only becauso this makes a much 1 ~ger vein-footage and mineral assets, but also because
it absolutely prevent.s any possihle liti~ation in the future, no matter how extensively this whole group would be wo:rk<ld,or how much rioh ore may be diso1osed, and furthermore, it makes it a lareer territory and more faoi1ities in every way in oonnecta n« the nnder!)rOlmd workings with all the different ore-veins, and trn18 fflaYing it posaib1e to work all these veins within a lar3e scope from one ~ain ~urking whether sueh be a tunnel or shaft, re,luoin~ the cost of min~ng to the minimum.
This group is showing a most perfeot vein-system, an~as it is a ell known feet, thnt all thin~s ha.ve an or:! >in or mother, and the mother of all these veins sprp.ndin~ out in every direotion will (aooord- in"g to the many irnport,mt jlmotions l be fOlmd in the he-rrth or central portion of the hill in the shape of a tremendous large ore-depositofo
still hi ghor class than the". t taken out from the various 1i ttl e surface "
workings of the8e veins.
This "mother deposit has so to say. throu;~h the at one time vo1canio disturbance thro7Jn out its branohes in various forma and directions
caus t n what we now term fissllre veins, .7ith ernaLLe.r ehut eu or pockets of ore, and Which are gettin~ smaller and more irre3ular the further
~ff they are from the mother deposits or main-ohutes.
In order to be able to form a true" opinion as to the size and richness of these veins in depth, it is nece.sary to 0"ref1111y study all these oondi tions ro1~ti vo to how the or e has b een formed, how far below the surfaoe the main-bodies of ore e. t.c., beoause, such is one of the most important factors in deterrlinin? the future of a mf ne ,
As a whole. I will again Sfl.y th!'tt • ,the high olasso! or e mined from these shallow surf~oe vor kf.n ~B. though in small quant f t t ee , is a s'lffioient evidenoe thHt the ore is there in large quantities at some depth below beoause. all of this ore haa come from no other place but the mother deposits below.
Attached hereto yO'1will fi.nd the cop~r of a few small shipments re1;lrns, and which show thAt the ore f rom the Dllblingroup is nlso of a hip:h olass.
