Heavy spending on equipment, new electrically driven compressor plant, and planned tram to railway shipping bins. Leasers report rich ore sightings with 70 to 110 ounces of silver per ton previously shipped. The Big Creek Mining Company plans to drive a creatorout tunnel at 500 feet depth to access the shoot. D. W. Price of Kellogg manages the Big Creek Leasing Company which holds the Yankee Bay lease opposite the canyon. A carload of ore recently shipped yielded 286 ounces of silver per ton, totaling $8 001 for 36 tons. A new compressor is installed and power line progress pending.
