Pharmacist, Tenolra and Burns Ore-Shoot Description
The veins of the Pharmacist and Tenolra and Burns are connected by drifts.

A new ore-shoot has since been found at 250 feet, the pockets two to five feet wide. Shaft was sunk 590 feet when the top of another pocket or ore-shoot was found, eighty feet in length and sixty feet deep and still continuing at 650 feet.
