Bear Creek Mine Yields New Ore Find at 1200 Feet
Reports from Bear Creek mining property in the Murray district describe a new ore discovery in the lower workings. Development shows 42 feet of milling ore with excellent mill feed quality, extending 12 feet at the face. Operators expect pay dirt milling once electric power is available, after a water shortage paused operations. A 50 ton shipment to Bunker Hill has occurred, with Kellogg plant likely to take the mine output. Steps to secure electric power for Bear Creek are planned alongside nearby tributary and Eagle Creek properties to cut installation costs. Local parties express strong confidence in steady operation when power arrives, aided by shared line feeding Jack Waite and Columbus.
