Bore which will be constructed by a Syndicate of Chicago and New York capitalists. The proposed Greenwood-Phoenix Tramway Bore without a question, is feasible, is practical, and is the most nearly demonstrated beforehand of any of the big mining Tunnels of America. It will, without.a doubt, show great results with a reasonable expenditure of money, and promises quicker returns than any similar enterprise which has yet been undertaken in the West. The unanimous support of the bonus By-law by the people of Greenwood carries with it much stronger evidence of their faith in the project than the mere matter of the money voted, which in itself is no small amount, for the failure of the enterprise would work irreparable injur)' to the future prospects of the camp. Most of the men who voted on the question are interested in mines, and all are thoroughly conversant with mines.and mining properties. The people of Greenwood are therefore eminently capable of judging whether tbe Bore will be a success or riot, and their emphatic endorsation of the proposition is a guarantee that the project is thoroughly sound and practical- ' All who are familar with the camp of Greenwood know that the high- grade belt which the Bore will explore, is one of the most highly mineralized zones known, and that it embraces a stretch of territory five miles long and two miles wide, extending from beyond the Providence to beyond the Skylark and from the Strathmore to the Crescent. Starting on the last named claim which produced 211 tons of ore which gave ��30,000 or $U7 to the ton, the Bore will cut through eighteen known veins which run North and South and are parallel, and average from 300 to 400 feet apart, and hav7 ing the values evenly distributed, as proven by, the Providence which pro-: duced 4,000 tons of ore giving returns of $440,000; the Elkhorn $100,000) of $93 ore; while the Skylark produced 1,100 tons worth about $110,000; and the Last Chance, half way between, which has a high-grade streak of 8 to 12 inches with values of $100 a ton, and which has also produced 1,000 tons from one big vein of low- grade ore 10 to 20 feet wide, that went $8 to the ton aud would concentrate at least 6 to 1. The Bore will develope a compact block of 600 acres crossed by eighteen proven veins which have been opened up to depths ranging from 100 to 600 feet, ������;. ���' _. -<y No doubt many blind leads which do not appear upon the surface will be disclosed. This is the history of other Tunnels, which have struck blind veins carrying fine ore. No other camp has so many rich surface showings to justify such an undertaking, for this great treasure-house of $90 a ton. with the values evenly distributed, and an entire -absence of pocket deposits. This big Bore or Tunnel proposition has been the dream of every prospector and of every old time mining man in this country who has e*ver seen the ground; but not until th-^rast eighteen months has it been possible to get the different property-owners to join in a consolidation. It took a panic to do it. The reason why this camp has been held back is not because there wasn't ore; not that there wasn't rich ore and lots of it; but because there were a number of small properties being worked separately at heavy cost. It cost $45.00 a ton to mine by little shafts with crude appliances and $12.50 for treatment charges, so that while with six to twelve inches of thisore running $100, and twelve to eighteen inches more running $10 to $12, each of these little properties would pay good profits for three or four to own and work themselves, yet they would not pay the expensive management of a stock company and also dividends on a big a mountain has produced close to j capitalization, hence the advantage of $1,000,000 in ore that averaged over a consolidation of a dozen of them. This consolidation will do away with twelve different managements, twelve different plants for hoisting, pumping, and drilling, in short it will reduce the cost of management 85 per cent., which in the aggregate is enormous. This will reduce the cost of mining from $45 a ton to $10 on the high- grade ore and will reduce the cost of mining thc low-grade ore from $4 to $1.50. This saving alone is more than the total values of the ore in many so-called high-grade camps. And with a large tonnage, smelter charges will be reduced from $12.50 to $8 a ton and will be eventually lowered to $6.50 a ton, as we believe it is the intention of the Company to build asmejter to treat their own ores, and to that end they will build a concentrator to concentrate the low-grade ore which can be concentrated at a cost of 75c a ton and will produce $40 to $50 concentrates. As the bore will cut two big low- grade veins from ten to twenty feet wide within the first five thousand feet, and as this ore averages $8 a ton, which is proven by shipments of up wards of one thousand tons, therefore, the Company will be assured of a tonnage that will keep a concentrator going, and make a lead .smelter in this City a certainty. The Syndicate who have taken'hold of this enterprise have entered into it in a cautious, business-like and systematic way, and- have the advice of the best Engineers they could get who thoroughly examined the project, and who have been engaged on the proposition for the past eighteen months. Moreover, they sent their Engineers to examine such tunnels a.s the New- house, the Sutro, the Two Brothers Bore Virginia Camp, Col., the Capital Prize Bore at Georgetown, Col., the Yak at Leadville, the Roosevelt deep tunnel at- Cripple Creek, and others in Colorado and Utah; and, after examining all of these, they pronounced this to be one of the best tunnel sites in America. While they will own all of thc* properties on the line of the first section of the Tramway Bore, being 6.U00 feet, laterals will be run and ore carried from different other properties on a freight and tonnage basis. Entering the mountain on the Strathmore mine which took the first prize at Nelson exhibition for the Province of British Columbia, and also took the first prize at Spokane against all the Western States for the finest high-grade gold and silver ores, this high-grade lead will be cut within 800 feet of the portal of the bore. The Defiance which adjoins the Strathmore, in the early days shipped $525 ore, which will be reached in 1,500 feet. From there on, the bore will crosscut a vein every three or four hundred feet at an average depth of twelve hundred feet. When completed it will tap the great Phoenix mines 2,200 feet below the surface, and the tonnage that will pour by gravitation from the portal of the Greenwood-Phoenix Tramway Bore with its capacity of ten thousand tons a day will make this City the Foremost Mining Camp of the West. All these are facts, and this is why he proposition will appeal to every man who knows the situation ; and these same facts are the reasons why the people of Greenwood have staked the future of their City on the success ofthe Greenwood-Phoenix Tramway Bore. OUR HIGH-GRADE OUTPUT A partial record of the production of the Greenwood High-grade Belt is as follows: , Providence $440,000 'Skylark 110.000 Elkhorn 100.000 E. P.U. - 50,000 Last Chance - 50,000 Strathmore 30,000 Crescent ���- -��� 20,000 Defiance 15,000 Bay - 15,000 Helen 10,000 Gold Bug - 10,000 Silver King, Silver Cloud 10,000 Gold Finch 10,000 Prince Henry, Preston, ) Monis, Don Pedro, >* 40,000 Lake and others J . When it is considered that the Providence which is the deepest mine in the Camp, has produced $440,000 above the 400 ft. level, and that the other propt es art nlydowii200 ft. or less and ha,.- made this splendid showing, it will be easily seen what immense possibilities will be opened up by deep Tunnel mining in Greenwood Camp. Success of Deep Tunnels. Anew Cripple Creek is to be opened up under the old one when the Roosevelt deep Tunnel is completed. This is confirmed by the announcement of a recent strike of great richness at the depth of 1,500 feet. The opening of the new ore body at thc 1,500 foot level has recalled to minds of prominent mining men the prediction of wiseacres in the early days of the camp to thc effect that the Mineralized zone did not extend downward to any extent, and that the life of the camp would be short on that account. The belief is now that thc career of the camp will be prolonged indefinitely. The Sutro Tunnel, with its laterals, is 12 miles long and is large enough in addition to its drain for a trolley line, which has been operated for the workmen in the various mines. It carries off all of the water in the various workings, tapping them between the 1,600 and 2,100 feet levels. It was planned by Adolph Sutro afterwards Mayor of San Francisco, being regarded as one of thc greatest engin- eerin'*- feats of the time. It relieved the necessity for huge pumps in the mines and greatly reduced the cost of mining. Renewed Activity in B.C. Mining. The season is opening up in a manner which promises a record year for British Columbia mines. From almost every camp throughout the province comes news of the bonding of properties, the resumption of operations on others, and the installation of new or additional plants. On the coast, no less than in the interior, is this the case, while reports from the northern part of the province point to a season of great activity and satisfactory development. Taken as a whole, the first quarter of the yearcloses with a very bright outlook for the chief mining province of the Dominion.��� B.C. Mining Exchange. Improvements in Smelting Great as has been the progress in methods of mining and smelting during recent years, we are on (he eve of still vaster changes and improvements as to cost of smelters and cost, of smelting. Among the most economical of recently-invented processes is the Fink smelter which has attracted the attention of every one interested in the mining industry, and which is the subject of the following comment from the March number of Mining Science: "William C. Fink of Elizabeth, N.J., has been figuring on going to Mexico to run a smelter of 500 tons a day, using his gas. It will smelt any ore from the black sands of Venezuela, where there are 30 miles of it and has to have a heat of 3,600��, to copper, iron ore or any other. Platinum and Vanadium also require 3,600��. He says he can smelt gold for 50 cts. a ton and silver for 24 cts. a ton. Many inquiries are coming to him from all over the world.'' likely to be exceeded in the future. The .Consolidated Company, after overcoming many difficulties ' both financial and technical in connection with its mines and smelter, has entered on a career that promises both remunerative returns to its shareholders and results of great advantage to tlie province. The company is a good illustration of the sound commercial and industrial basis on which the mining condition of British Columbia now rests. Within the last few years other staple industries have occupied a prominent place in the attention of the public, but notwithstanding all the vicissitudes it has experienced, the mining industry has gone ahead and will always hold the prominent position in this province.

Title | Boundary Creek Times |
Alternate Title | [The Greenwood Weekly Times] |
Publisher | Greenwood, B.C. : Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1909-04-09 |
Description | The Boundary Creek Times was published in Greenwood, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from September 1896 to March 1911. The Times was published first by the Times Publishing Company (1896-99), and then by the Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company (1901-1911), and its longest-serving editor was Duncan Ross (1897-1907). In April 1911, the Times was absorbed by another Greenwood-based paper, the Ledge. The Times was revived in 1983, and it continues to be published out of a small building in downtown Greenwood to this day. |
