Strike on Elmore Mine Sparks Cascade Hope
The Elmore group on Shamrock mountain near Christina lake yields twelve feet of clean chalcopyritic ore in crosscutting, the best yet from the Christina lake district. Frank Hutchinson, locator and president of the Belcher Gold Mining Co., reports the find to Cascade City, with Curtis as secretary and manager. The strike could trigger rapid development and bolster regional mining interests.
