Joplin —The Bethlehem Zinc Co., which several years ago developed a lease one mile east of Quapaw, which was worked with some success, now is opening a lease near Treece, Kansas, that promises to be as successful as other mines of that district. The lease contains fifty-five acres on the Wright land and is next south of the Silver Fox mine. All the ground has been thoroughly drilled, and a shaft has been sunk into ore, which is found at 250 ft. The drilling proved high-grade ore in a large part of the lease.
The shaft is in ore that runs 25% zinc. The company will move its mill from the lease at the Quapaw, to the new lease, and will push the work as rapidly as possible. The mill is of 800 tons capacity, and is in good condition. Herman B. Jones, of Joplin, is manager.
