showers, etc., tor tfco employees.
Underground development for the
year in the way of uiuin drifts, shafts,
including the Sheep creek tunnel,
amounting to ovor 21,000 foot, was ac
complished. This was all driven in
hard rock, the main part being in the
footwall of the ore zone. Stations
wero cut in overy level of the mine
from the Sheep creek revel to tho sur
face. The new vertical shaft was com
pleted from the Sheep creek level to
the surfaco and equipped with a mod
ern hoist, double-deck cages, etc., for
handling* men and supplies. The shaft
was also equipped with a concrete
steel heudframe, seventy feet high on j
the surfaco of tho Perseverance out- J
crop. LevelB are being driven every
,200 feet, from the Sheep creek level
| to the surface, which is a distance of
over 1600 feet. The mine is equipped
j with storago battery locomotives and
| with electric lights throughout, and a
telephone system connecting with
every level of the mine and all of the
buildings aud camps and general of-j
' flee.
The Sheep creek tuunel was driven
(at an average speed of 547.8 feet per
month for the year. The greatest dis
tance driven In uny one month was 661'
feet. The tunnel was all driven on '
I the strike of the vein, the ground
! breaking short and the rock has been
! exceedingly hard throughout, a largo :
| part of the tunnel being in the hard
; greenstone and metta-gabbro found in
and adjacent to the footwall. In this
kind of rock and from one heading as
far as wc can ascertain this is a world's;
! record for continuous high speed.
Salmon Creek Division.
i The work accomplished at Salmon!
creek during the year was the finish
ing of the No. 1 power house at thu
beach, putting in operation the No. 1
unit of 1500 kilowatts capacity in this
No 1 power house; the erection and ;
putting in operation of the No. 2 power
house containing two 1500 kilowatts
units; the construction of the pipe
line, 16 inches in diameter, one mile
in length from the No. 2 power houso
to the dam. Rebuilding of horse tram 1
into a railroad system and the con- J
structlon of scows, slips etc., so that!
the cement and material could be han
dled from the ships to the dam without I
being handled but once.
At the dam the foundation for same
was cleared off, over 20,000 yards of I
material being removed; the construc
tion of a gravel and sand plant and, ]
mixing plant was finished and actual ;
pouring of the concrete into the dam ]
was started. Over two-fifths of the i
concrete was poured and work stopped '
only on account of the lack of necessity 11
of finishing the dam during the year
and the need of the power used for .
this purpose in the other divisions .
and the higher cost of pouring con- i
Crete during the winter time. ?
The dam was visited by Arthur P. j ]
Davis, of the United States Reclama- ,
tion Service, and L. Jorgcnson, of the
F. G. Baum & Company, both well ,
known dam engineers, who reported }
favorably as to the character of the ,
construction work, design of the dam, ,
etc. ? ' ,
"I -I. nt.il.l.n
Onccp vrwr\ uivioivm j
At Sheep creek the wharves were i.
enlarged; the road was completed ov- j
er a mile in length to connect with
the government road; new warehouses J
were built; 300-man dining room and
six bunk houses were constructed, all
provided with hot water heating sys
tem; butcher shop, offices and stores
were built. A townslte was laid out ^
and eighteen 3-room; three 4-room and
four 5-room cottages were built and
all are occupied.
The site for the foundation of the
coarse crushing plant and also for the
main concentrating milling plant of 6,
000 tons per day was cleared and work
started on the rock work. A modern
machine shop was built and also a f
woodworking plant, and a large por- f
tion of the railroad from the coarse
?
crushing plant to the Sheep creek tun- ^
ncl was finished. The exeprlmental ?
plant was operated throughout the
year on mine run of Perseverance ore
and the exact metallurgical treatment f
was satisfactorily determined. The ?
whole milling plant has been designed *
in general and detail and both the -
steel for the milling plant and coarse
crushing plant as well as all equipment t
has been ordered. S
This Year. ,
During the year 1914 the same con
struction and development work will
continue In all three divisions; the
mine will be made ready to deliver 6,
000 tons of ore economically to the
haulage system of the Sheep creek lev
el through oreways. The Sheep creek
adit will be connected with the vertl- t
cal shaft some time during April and c
th<* mine haulage system from the c
mine to the beach will be finished. c
At Salmon creek the pouring of the a
dam will start in the month of April P
and be Immediately finished during the r
year so that the fall rains will go to
Btorage. This dam, when finished, will h
be 165 feet high and 720 feet on the
crest and will be the highest variable '
radius arch type of dam in the world.
At Sheep cucek the construction
work on the steel milling plant and
coarse crushing plant will begin In '
April and if nothing unforeseen pre- j
vents the erection of this plant It t
should be finished and the first sec- -
r- I
tion of the plant ready for operation
on or before January 1st, 1914.
