TERRACE, B.C:

The following information Is

taken from a study by Price
Waterhouse & Co. of metal,
asbestos and coal mining in
British Columbia, covering the -
1970 exploration, development
and production operations in
B.C, of 58 companies.
: The study was prepared for
the Mining Association of
British Columbia but the
assembly, analysis and
interpretation — of the
information was undertaken
independently fram the
association.

The companies participating .
in the study accounted for
substantially all production, all
on- prope rty. development
expenditures and over one-third
of outside exploration
expenditures in B.C. in 1970.

The report, following similar

reports for 1967, 1968 and 1969
provides continuing

information about the current
position of the industry, its
dynamic growth in recent
years, and its importance to the
economy of the province.

The B.C. mining indsutry in
1970 established” these new
records:

. Net capital inflaw — the net
investment attracted by B.C,
mining - reached $352 million. .
(Comparative 1969 figure - $270
million)

IMPORTANT REMINDER

SHERBROOKE, Que. (CP) —
An important thing to remem-
ber if one.is re-covering. furni-
ture or lawn chairs is that un-
less the new cover is to be
stitched to the old one, the fab-
ric must be strong enough to
support about 150 pounds of
weight. Velero strips in stra-
tegic spots keep slipcovers taut
and in position.

to go along and give our
support.” ;

towards cleaning-up, Chamber
