Neptune ore mining reports strong assay results and high copper content

Assays from Neptune ore show copper contents of 29 56-100 to 32 35-100 per cent by several experts including Prof Richards Smith Sharples and Halliday. The Boston ore Milling Works processed ore yielding 700 pounds of copper per ton. A ton of pure ore was brought back by M Smart. The vein shows continuity to 50 feet depth and is considered highly favorable by mining men with potential sale value up to a million dollars if richness endures. Seventy five dollars per ton offers have been made by three parties. Twenty five thousand shares remain in the company treasury with more stock held until the mine sustains itself.
