85 feet, and the south one 86 feet 3 inches. The first has a 

 thickness of one-half inch, the second one-half to one, and the 

 third one inch. They dip 50° N. No. 6 is the Moleskin belt. 

 It is composed of two leads, the higher 90 feet from the north 

 end of the trench, one-half inch thick, with a hanging wall of 

 whin ; the lower, two feet farther south, one-fourth inch thick. 

 They dip 70° N. No. 7 is a perpendicular lead, at 96 feet, one- 

 half to one inch thick. No. 8 is at 99 feet, a three-quarter-inch 

 lead. No. 9 is at 100 feet, one inch thick, and appearing in 

 places to be two leads very closely associated. No. 10 is 147 

 feet south, a quarter-inch curly lead, already referred to as hav- 

 ing a double dip, lying as it does exactly on the anticlinal axis. 

 No. 11 is at 166 feet, a large white lead, twelve to fifteen inches 

 thick, dipping 50° S. South of the trench is the S. 0. B. lead, 

 five inches thick. 



Trench No. 3 (pi. 7, fig. d), on areas 31 and 970 (block 4), 

 was cut to overlap No. 2. South of its south end 37 feet are 

 two two-inch leads. North from its south end 21 feet is the 

 Hen Miller lead, six inches ; at 85 feet is the Root Hog belt^ 

 with leads one, two, four and six inches thick. At 110 feet is 

 a large lead of twelve to fifteen inches ; at 131 feet a belt of two 

 leads, three and two inches. At 154 feet is an eight-foot belt, 

 giving leads of one, six, one, and four inches. At 172 feet is 

 the S. O. B., six inches ; and at 202 feet a large angular. At 

 215 feet is an eight- to ten-foot belt of slate, with leads of six 

 and two inches. Beyond the trench, in the drain, is a three- 

 inch lead, the South Flat ; and beyond this the Smith belt, a 

 three-inch and a two-inch lead. 



Division iv. — In this division the Copper and No. 7 have 

 never been prospected for. The Little North is here more like 

 its condition on the west side of division iii, giving two feet of 

 good crushing. The North Sutherland (Big North) is five inches 

 thick on the average. South of this, owing to the structure, 

 there are no leads which have been found to the west ; and since 

 many of the workings have been in disuse for years, or have
