SUMMARY REPORT 203 SESSIONAL PAPER No. 26 main outcrop of this vein is about 100 feet above Cobalt lake and buta few chains inland. The ore in this property is of quite a differentnature from that of the La Rose mine. It consists pratically of smal-tite, without any vein stuff, and contains little if any silver. Pending further analyses the figures given by Professor Miller, in thereport above cited, will serve to indicate the character of the ore. Cobalt ... Nickel Iron ... Arsenic •.Insol.
