6 CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, March 6, 1958 SS eee LEGION GORNER EES Radio Bingo dominates Le- gion affairs at the present time. Every effort is being made by mémbers of the Branch, to sell three thousand bingo cards, and thus assure a goodly contri- bution to our hospital, arena, and to the Legion Boys’ Town. Sales Manager, Bert Martin, reports that the response for bin- go cards has been outstanding, and that the possibility of reach- ing our objective is very prom- ising. Comrade Harold Foxlee of Robson, now leads in the sales department with over one hun- dred cards sold. To date, he has steadfastly refused to divulge the secret of his salesmanship, to anyone.

However, an econ- omic mineral deposit is an ¢x- MINING IN BRITISH COLUMBIA preted so it can be used to guide exploration; : Geochemical work involves eytremely sensitive tests for tra- ces of valuable elements in soll, silt, plants, or water, which could buried mineral deposit. Copper indicate a mineralized area or and zine tests are most widely used, Geophysical work involves use of equipment which is flown or carried over the ground, test- ing for in physical pro- tremely rare and relatively min- ute product of special geologic conditions enclosed within a large mass of otherwise barren rock which is frequently cover- ed largely by over-burden. Thus discovery of new mines is always difficult, risky, and costly, and awarded last year, to worthy scholars in our province, At least eight scholarships will be award- ed by’ B.C, Command this year, and two $400.00 awards will come from Dominion C d. more so as the more accessible and better exposed areas are searched, A few valuable mineral de- perties of the ground, which may indicate buried or unrecognized mineral deposits, (a) Scintillo- meters or geiger counters are used to record radioactivity, chiefly to detect uranium.

Leitner has raised $81.65 which will be used for the “Aid to China”. This money was raised through a raffle held by the children with cakes as prizes, The cakes were generously’ donated by Mrs, Hyde and Mrs. Piquard who receive a vote of thanks. Prize winners were F, Spen- cer and E, Hyde and Lindsay Conroy and Shirley Fomenoff re- ceive honours for selling the most tickets, known percentage recovery and from estimated costs of develop- ment, mining, milling, transpor- tation, treatment, ete. Once it is established that a prospect ap- pears to be economically mine- able, the mineral deposit can be called “ore”, this term connoting reasonably expectable profit, and development can be started. It must be emphasized that up to this point, no matler how y and most metals, also graphite. (d) Gravimeters, which measure hea- vy masse: n the ground, are used to detect large mineral de- posits which are heavier or light- er than the surrounding rock.

He himself may provide this with the aid of the B.C. Gov- ernment grubstake, devoting his time, effort, and money with no return unless he makes a pro- ritable discovery. On the other airborne or ground surveys, find anomalies (areas of anomalous or unusual properties); ‘but their results must be interpreted by highly experienced and trained versonnel and checked by trench. ing or drilling since uneconomic deposits or barren rock can also produce anomalies. Stripping and trenching con- sist of removing overburden or sinking trenches or test pits by hand or machine in order to ex- pose the fresh undisturbed min- eral deposit so that its width and length can be judged and the material can be sampled. Drilling is done from the surface or from underground fi to the extent hand, he may be for a part interest, or employed with a salary and an interest, either by an individual, syndicate or company: Once having moved into his chosen place by plane, helicopter, boat, canoe, packhorse, packdog, foot, or other means, he diligent- ly searches the stream beds and mountain slopes for any miner- alization in loose rock (“float”) moved down the slopes by gra- vity, water, or ice. He may use a gold pan to find heavy minepr- als; may check on old mineral and character of the mineral de- posit under the ground, and to obtain samples and further geo- logic information, Diamond drills (with diamond-studded bronze bits) are most commonly used, usually with coring bits (with a hole in the centre) to extract an undisturbed core of rock or ore from depths of several hundred feet or more. Other non-coring drills, including churn drills, var- ious jack hammer type drills, earth augurs, and even rotary rigs may be used under certain iti Since drill results are or reported may prospect favourable rock types or rock structures; may use a geiger counter or scintillo- meter to find radioactivity; may use an ultra-violet lamp to re- cognize and trace tungsten or other fluorescent minerals; may test soil, silt, water, or plants for not always reliable, tunnels, shafts, raises, and other man- sized workings may have to be driven to check the results or drilling, to sample the deposit more extensively, or to deter- mine, its nature beyond the lim- its of drilling.- is the of traces of metals with a ical kit;' or may prospect with varicus geophysical instruments.
