18 12-foot open-cut at its east end at elevation 5,000 feet. The west segment is offset only a few feet. It is 40 feet long and ranges from 6 to 12 inches in width. The east segment of the vein is offset about 15 feet to the north. It is 160 feet in length and also ranges from 6 to 12 inches in width. The veins are of quartz well mineralized with jamesonite, sphalerite, and galena, with a little pyrite, cosalite, and arsenopyrite. The sulphides occur dissem- inated through the quartz and as alternate bands of solid sulphide. A 24-inch channel sample taken across the vein in the open-cut at elevation 5,000 feet assayed: gold, a trace; silver, 5-24 ounces a ton; lead, 11-01 per cent; zinc, 5-71 per cent; antimony, 2-68 per cent; arsenic, 2-43 per cent. An 18-inch channel sample taken across the same vein, 90 feet west at 50 feet higher elevation, assayed: gold, a trace; silver, 3-51 ounces a ton; lead, 8-00 per cent; zinc, 6-55 per cent; antimony, 2:16 per cent; arsenic, 3:20 per cent. An 8-inch channel sample taken across the east segment of the vein, 130 feet east of the open-cut, assayed: gold, 0-015 ounce a ton; silver, 0:60 ounce a ton; lead, 0-36 per cent; zinc, 0-81 per cent; antimony, none. A 10-inch channel sample taken across a strong vein at elevation 4,800 feet, 180 feet southwest of the inclined shaft, assayed: gold, a trace; silver, 15-23 ounces a ton; lead, 8:18 per cent; zinc, 16-70 per cent. A mineralized shear zone in the granodiorite occurs on the steep east side of the cirque at elevation 4,940 feet. In a 10- by 20-foot open-cut the sheared and bleached granodiorite is impregnated with small veinlets of quartz, galena, sphalerite, and jamesonite over a width of 8 feet. A representative sample of this ore assayed: gold, nil; silver, 3-74 ounces a ton; lead, 2-82 per cent; zinc, 3-30 per cent. Fifty feet south of the open- cut, the continuation of the shear zone is covered by talus, and 50 feet north it narrows and splits into two parts, which follow north around the nose of the ridge. The eastern branch is exposed for 100 feet and the western for 160 feet. Both range from 6 to 18 inches in width and are heavily mineralized with jamesonite and sphalerite.. A considerable tonnage of high-grade silver-lead-zine ore containing a little antimony and bismuth is indicated from the surface exposures. Sloecan Group (10) The Slocan mineral claims, owned by J. A. Miller of South Hazelton, cover the top of Nine Mile Mountain eastward from the peak and extend down the precipitous north slope to form a unit with the Lead King claims. The showings are reached by way of the trail to the Sunrise property, there being an easy gradient from the Sunrise workings to the mountain top. The claims are 8 miles northeast of South Hazelton, but by road and trail the distance is 16 miles. At elevation 5,500 feet, on the east side of the highest part of the mountain, a sheared zone 2 feet wide has been traced for 150 feet by a number of trenches. The country rocks are sandstones, tuffs, and argillites intruded about 600 feet to the north by the granodiorite stock that outcrops for 3 miles along the north side of the mountain. The sheared rock is sparsely mineralized, but carries at its centre a sulphide vein composed
