WftfeNECKE" MINES, IN MAYO
SECTION. HIT BY BAD MARKET
The unfortunate silver situation
throughout the world is making it
difficult'!to continue operations at the
Wernecke mine, in. the Mayo district
of Yukon-Territory, according to a
report issued to its stockhoders by
the Treadwell Yukton Company, in
which there appears a -brief state
ment by . P- R. Bradley, -consulting,
engineer. .
According,-jto the-statement'of the
president, the properties had an oper
ating profit last? year of about $400,
000.. The views of Engineer Bradley
are expressed, in the following state
ment;
“Wernecke Mines—The situation at
this property has been seriously af?
fected by the decline in the price of
si Iter. Ore assaying 00 Ounces or
less of silver eanrtot be mined and
milled at a -Therefore will
remain in place. Moreover, the
chftnees are very remote that it will
evtnbe possibd during the ife of the
property to return and mine ore of
this grade. Consequently, the life of
thfs enterprise may. be seriously
shortened unless new discoveries are
nnide in the district soon.
“No new properties have been ac
quired, nor has the underground ex
^htokSion'Nweteir'fbund ore in excess of
expectations, so that unless unfore
seen discoveries are made in the close
vicinity of the Werneeke camp proper

all ore there will be mined and milled

essary to remove the mill and , ether

“Prospering; .pwriaasu ware- kkjj^iri:
,the field' throughout Jkha.summer r of
this year, and sthesec parties- were
transported and kept supplied by, air
plane service,, which.: ,very efficiently
makes it possible,to prospect a large
area in a. .short time.. No, immediate
results* were. forthcoming from- this
prospeoting, but one area, will be
given ,a smare thorough investigation
next, summer."
