Mines Work Delayed by Heavy Rains South of Town
Mining activity near the town is slowed by heavy rainfall. The steam drill pump shaft is down about 40 feet, a lead ore rock shaft is 33 feet deep, with 10 feet more hard rock to bore. The horse drill struck zinc and lead in several zones. A Chitwood company considers leasing the original strike ground, planning a 100 ton concentrating plant once the deal closes.
