21 at elevation 4,500 feet, about 200 feet west of the most westerly pit on the upper vein. Two other veins occur at the same elevation, 60 and 120 feet farther south, respectively. All three are quartz veins that occupy faults in the diorite. They strike from south 30 to south 50 degrees east and dip 70 degrees southwest. Hach vein ranges from 6 to 12 inches in width, with 2 to 3 feet of altered wall-rock. The vein quartz is sparsely mineralized with galena and occasionally with tetrahedrite and a little chalcopyrite. A typical 8-inch channel sample taken across the second vein assayed: gold, none; silver, none; lead, 0-22 per cent. The two latter veins converge and join about 100 feet farther down the slope, and at their junction increase to 10 feet in width. At elevation 4,300 feet this vein has decreased to 6 inches of vein quartz. Here, an adit 125 feet in length was driven to crosscut the vein about 100 feet east of the portal. Ten feet from the face there is a 6-inch quartz vein with sparsely distributed tetrahedrite. The writer collected a channel sample across it that assayed: gold, none; silver, 0-20 ounce a ton; copper, none; lead, none. M. and K. Group (13) (See Figure 2) References: Ann.

The M. and K. group is on the mountain on the north side of the east fork of Legate creek, about 15 miles by trail southeast of Pacific. The claims are reached by a switchback trail, now badly overgrown, which leaves the east fork trail half a mile east of the middle fork. The original stakers, Whitmore and Orr, bonded the property to J. J. Price in 1916. The following year he shipped 130 tons of float ore, which returned about 25 per cent lead, 20 per cent copper, and 25 ounces of silver a ton. The Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company of Canada, Limited, carried out a little exploration work on the claims in 1928 and 1929, but failed to locate a further source of the rich sulphide ore. The upper part of the mountain is comprised of andesitic flows with interbedded volcanic breccia and tuff. Intrusive diorite outcrops below an elevation of 3,800 feet. The diorite is part of a granitic stock that ex- tends for about 2 miles west and south. The original discovery consisted in finding blocks and fragments of solid sulphide for a distance of 500 feet on a talus slide between elevations of 4,600 and 4,850 feet. The ore occurred in pieces up to 2 feet in diameter and was scattered over a width of about 200 feet. Most of the ore has since been sacked and packed away, but some still remains. The sulphides con- sist of an intergrowth of chalcopyrite, galena, bornite, and sphalerite, with small amounts of tetrahedrite and specularite. A typical sample picked from the slide assayed: gold, a trace; platinum, none; silver, 3-10 ounces a ton; copper, 10-98 per cent; lead, 26-51 per cent. There was in addition zine, for which a test was not made. About 80 feet east of the talus slide, at elevation 4,675 feet, an adit was driven north 50 degrees east for 79 feet and then south 60 degrees east
