Two target program

at FrenchPeak Mine

Smithers area of central

. west B.C. has long been

known for both its high
grade mines and ils large
tonnage, lower grade
deposits. Examples of the
high grade mines are the
Silver Standard Mine,
Cronin Babine and the large

.. tonnage mines are Granisle,

Bell Copper and the Sam
Goosley. In the spring of

» 1976, Aalenian acquired an
. option to buy a 100 percent
*. interest in the French Peak
. Silver mine, located ap-
proximately 40 miles nor- ,

has a history of very high
grade silver production, a

’ good potential for sub-

stantial tonnages of ad-
ditional high grade silver-
lead-zine production and a
geological environment
favourable for the discovery
of a large lonnage massive
sulphide ore body.

Access to (he property is
by way of a governmenl
road to within six miles of
the workings with the
balance of the road recently
up-graded to all weather
status by the company.
There is ample walter supply
on the property and = ex-
perienced crews = are
tvailable in Smithers.

ln early May, the com-
pany initiated a drilling.
trenching and geophysical
prospecting «program
designed lo test the lwo
targets an fhe property.

Varget One

iHtleH GRADE SILVER-
COLD-COPPER VEIN
SPRUECTURE. :

The first target had been‘
located hy previous
property owners who
trenched the vein on surface
and shipped 44 tons which
averaged 161 gunees silver
per ton, plus 14 percent lead.
‘The initial dvill holes tested
this showing al depth with

sucvess(ul results as seen in

the tabie ot assays. When
the program began, the
Known anneralizalion wits
fleet lang an surface. The
fist phase extended this to
“120 leet long strike and lo a
mum depth of #@ feet.
This area contains an in-
dieated migeral reserve
with ao pross value of in
excess of $100,000,000 which
will generate a significant
cash flow and profit, upon
nuning. Prospecting and

- property.

geological mapping has
traced this vein structure
over a length in excess of
1,500 feet. The structure
disappears under over-
burden at both ends and is
open lo further extension
wilh additional surface
work or drilling.

An underground program
of 600 feet of drifting is now
underway, lo upgrade the

- presently duitl indicated

reserves in the droven class
and prepare for mining and
production.

Drill testing for the ex-
tension of this ore shoot and
for other ore shools along
the 1500 fect of the vein
slructure will be undertaken
as conditions permit.

Target Two
KUR OK TYPE
VOLCANOGENIC
MASSIVE SULPHIDE
DEPOSIT

Second target on this
property is a large tonnage
ore body of the type
described as massive
sulphides and associated
with acid tuffs formations
with geological similarities
to the Texas Gulf-Kidd
Creek deposit. There are a
number of geological and
geophysical features on the
French Peak praperty
which encourage {he search
for such a large target. Une
of the features of a massive
sulphide deposit is a cap
rock or marker bed of
hematite overlying the
massive sulphides. Such a
hematite horizon has been
indicated on the Aalenian
In addition, a
large electromagnetic
anomaly has been drill
tested by five holes. Each of
the holes encountered
massive sulphides. These
holes carried sections
assaying in 17 ounces silver
per ton, plus 0.06 ounce gold
per lon. Disseminated
tetrahedrite, a highgrade
copper-silver mineral,
similar to the Sam Goosely
deposit, was encountered in
these holes, A further
feature is the localion within
the anomalous area of a’

trench some.A00-feet south of -.;-
the vein structure which has -""
yielded grab samples in the -:

100 ounces silver per ton
range.

An exlensive program of
lesting of the massive
sulphide potential is. con-

Library news.

It is with great regret that
the Terrace Public Library
will be saying good-bye to its
chief librarian, Mrs. Mary
Anne Guenther. She has
been with the library for
three years, and during her
stay many additions have
been made to the library.
There has been an extension

- of the actual building, so
” that

it can house the
collection. A children's area
was added te provide a
pleasant place for children

. to enjoy themselves with
. books. The adult section was
* enlarged, and now includes

an area with magazines and
a relaxing corner to read
them in. The history and
literature materials were
updated and added to by

Mrs. Guenther, and ' the
collection grew to 30,000
volumes. Membership has
grown by thousands -over
these three years and many
of the borrowers will be
sorry to see her leave. She
will be joining her husband
in Vancouver on September
1). .

Mrs. Kate Inoue, the new
librarian, gave her first
story hour on Saturday,
September 4at 1 p.m. There
were stories, films and a
puppet show to amuse the
children,

The cost of legal services
in Canada is so high that
most Canadians can't get
the help they need, the new
president of the Canadian
Bar Association said.

A. Boyd Ferris, QC, of
Vancouver, who was elected
to head the association for
the coming year, spoke of'
the need for more
reasonably-priced legal
services in a speech at the
Sith annual meeting in
Winnipeg.

The cost of legal services
is just one of the issues
Ferris said the .18,500
lawyers in the Canadian Bar
Association must face up to
in the years ahead, .

He asked his audience
what research, experiment
or innovation has been tried

ms to bring down or control the

cost of legal services. In his
opinion, little has been done.
No prepaid legal plan exists
in Canada. As for legal aid,
much more than “modest
means” is necessary to
qualify.

“It is a fact that the legal
needs of the vast lower
incame group of Canada are
being neglecled and the
major reason is that the cost
of rrieeting such needs is far
beyond their ability to pay,”’
Ferris said. “Consequently,

money on every cheque you write.

IT’S SIMPLE. _ just open a TD Personal Chequing Account (if you don’t |

this group only seeks legal
services When driven to do
so, such as to meet a
criminal charge.” .
He. said the profession
must respond to this need,
and one suggestion was to
increase the use of
paralegals. But, he said, the
profession does not train
paralegals anywhere in
Canada. ;
“We are not grappling
with the cost of legal ser-

‘vices with the same sense of

urgency and dedicated
effort that the public in-
terest requires,” Ferris
said. oo
He said that people find it
difficult to select a lawyer
when one is needed. He
suggested a study of the
merits of controlled ad-
vertising lo allow lawyers to
make their special services
known to the public. —
Ferris aid emphasis on
the fundamenta
sibility owed by
profession to the public to

ensure thal those licensed to.

practice law are qualified
and competent.

He said the licensing
bodies in cach province
should be able to demand
roof of competency from
lawyers, and that greatly-
expanded continuing legal

education courses should be
implemented to allow
lawyers to retain or re-
acquire that competency,

Ferris pointed out that the
CBA was in existence for 65
years before it opened the
deliberations of its gover-
ning council to the media.
He said the public must be
continuously informed
about the profession and one
way is for the leaders of the
profession to speak out on
issues of the day.

“I am firmly convinced
that to fall into the practice
of avoiding, temporizing, or
declining public comment
onthe ground that the issues
raised are not of pure law
will curry public disap-

intment in the Canadian

ar Association and bring
our relevancy into serious
question," Ferris said,

Ferris, 47, is a senior
partner in the Vancouver

- firm of Davis & Company,

practicing in labor law as
well as corporate and
generaé litigation,

He studied law al
University of B.C. and was
called to the B.C. Bar in
1955. He has been active for
many years in affairs of the
CBA and has been a Ben-
cher of the Law Society of
B.C, since 1973.
