A similar occurrence was noted on the Bradley location (S. y2, lot 5, con. IV) whichis on the west shore of Lepha lake. The locality is easily reached from the Montreal river. Lepha lake is three-quartersof a mile east of the south bay of Indian lake, which is an expansion of the Montrealriver. 164 Bureau of Mines No. 4. Fig. 6 7.—Elk City, James Township, summer of 19f>7.
