Keefer Group on Eagle Creek to be Developed
Nine claims on Eagle Creek near Waite Station, led by T H Keefer, with Pittsburg financiers represented by C M Wray, plan immediate development. A crosscut near the vein at 140 feet aims to reach productive ore within 30 to 40 more feet, with hand work now and compressor equipment planned for spring. The formation mirrors the Gold Back vein and shows carbonate ore with silver and traces of gold. State Mine Inspector Campbell notes mining is reviving as costs and prices improve and larger producers may resume operations.

The Jim Blaine Silver Syndicate property in the Pine Creek district reports the lower crosscut tunnel advanced 275 feet under manager Harry Morrell. Heavy water and slow progress due to timbering, but the mineralized face carries lead values with good potential. A drift will follow the best showing as machinery and machine drills are set to accelerate work on the consolidated 27 claims near Lookout Mountain.
