mines is amaz/lhg. The Haile gold

which was for a lorag time the
biggest mine in operation, had ait
output of 7,500,000 tons of ore, yields
ing $2.60 to $10 jM?r ton, with a profitable
average exceeding $3.50 in
gold values. In this mine the ohtcropa
are exposed in crystalline rock
on both sides of Lcdbetter creek. This
mine was worked out. It is no longer
-in operation. This became one of
the most noted and successful gold
mines east of .the Mississippi river.
