The Prospectors Development Co., whose property is just south of the Blue Bonnett Mine, at Hockerville, has seven drill rigs at work, testing its forty-acre lease. Eighteen holes have been drilled, and it is said good ore has recently been found. The company has a 150-ton mill In operation, but for several months, has run the plant only enough to make expenses of operating, as there has been a shortage of water for milling purposes, and there have been a number of changes under way. It seems that the Blue Bonnett found more than enough water at 250 ft., and plants of the St. Louis company, adjoining the Prospectors lease, found too much water at less than 200 ft., but the Prospectors has never had as much water as it wanted, although it has sunk to 265 ft. J. D. Simpson is president.
