Up to last Thursday the tunnel by the Portland Lid., to tap the Glacier creek vein series at depth being driven Canal Tunnels, had reached a distance of 1,455 feet fromthe portal. The ground encountered for several days has been the hardest yet drilled into, Bear River and while still in the series—of the Geological Survey Greenstone's is highly altered and impregnated with quartz and iron, It probable, according to General Manager W. J, Elmen- dorf, that the face of the tunnel is approaching the contact with the Bitter Creek series (Argil- lites) and as soon as they are en- countered interesting develop- ments may be looked for. ‘The average progress is still better than 50 feet per week.
