Independent vein development planned after crosscut agreement
The Independent Copper Mining and Milling Co plans a major development of its three patented claims north of the National copper property near Missoula. An easement from National Copper Mining allows use of its tunnel to extend the crosscut toward the Independent vein, with work to begin once equipment is moved. The plan aims to reach the vein at 1000 feet depth, using the extended crosscut and existing workings, with a monthly $100 tunnel use payment to National.
