Prospect of rich ore yields at Wheal Hughes mine reported
The Geelong Advertiser describes continued ore finds at Wheal Hughes. New drifts show a five foot wide lode with seven more fathoms to drive, and the 32 fim. level promising four tons per fathom. A three foot lode north of the shaft yields about 20 percent copper when broken. A promising bottom engine shaft ore aligns with the No. 2 shaft, suggesting a continuation of the same shoot. Shareholders are urged by the report to view the property's prospects as very encouraging.
