The deepest level of the mine was the 6300 foot level which was developed from an inclined winze sunk from the 555o level 300 feet south of the shaft. There are approximately 8 miles of drifts, crosscuts and tunnels, 4 miles of raises, and 50 miles of stope floors. To December 31, 1942, total mine production was 2,750,000 tons of ore from which $25,179,160.43 was recovered and dividends of $3,789,750 were paid on an original capitalization of $1,000,000.
