A. H. Bryant, general manager of the Cassiar Hydraulic Mines Inc., with a party of eleven men will leave Monday on the Hazel B No 3 for Telegraph Creek en route to the company's property on Dease Creek where three of the crew have spent the winter.
The new equipment which Mr. Bryant is taking in includes an Ingersoll Rand air compressor to run jack hammers and to drill boulders and bed rock. Dease Lake is still frozen and equipment and supplies may be transported over the ice.
Last season's work demonstrated the existence of an ancient channel carrying gold bearing gravels, heavy gold in bedrock wash and fine gold well distributed through the upper gravels.
Everything is in readiness to take advantage of high water when it comes and encouraging results from the first sixty days of piping may be anticipated with confidence.
