Prospector Policy Proposals From Gordon Hunter In Rossland
Gordon Hunter, counsel for the Crown in the Le Roi Mining assessment appeal, urges radical prospecting reforms. He favors a 500000 mining fund, expert inspections, and government advances to develop promising claims while preserving 85 percent to discoverers. He argues such support would boost prospecting and railway growth, aiding industry. An unrelated note reports Joe Taylor’s long fasting and recovery, logged by the Phoenix Pioneer.
