News of the District...

a Kitselas, July 31:—The Cassiar
Hydraulic Mining Co. which has

Just completed the installation of

a high power hydraulic plant on
Gold Greek, near Kitselas, has
commenced operations. . The
Surface indications are exception-
ally rich and good prospects have
been obtained. Everyone con-
nected with the mine is ex-
tremely optimistic as to the even-
tual results. Placer mining has
been conducted ina small way
along Gold Creek in the past, and
very successfully considering the
crude methods used at the time.
One miner discovered some time
ago along this creek a nugget
worth, it is said, twenty two dol-

jlars and a couple of miners not

long since cleaned up between
seven and eight hundred dollars
in avery short time with the
most obsolete of arrangements,
The Cassiar Mining Co, are oper-
ating an areaof about five million
cubic yards, The plant installed
is capable of developing over one
hundred horsepower, much more
in fact than will be actually
necessary, as the ground to be
~! washed out is largely made up
of moderately coarse gravel and
sand,

The entire district surrounding
Kitselas is very rich in minerals
including goid, silver and copper,
The great drawback in the past
has been the lack of proper trana-
portation facilities, but there
is little doubt that in the near
future Kitselas district will be
the centre of some very. impor-
tant mining operations.
