Dodge, is situated at the head waters of the south fork of Glacier Creek, at an elevation of ft., and is distant about miles from Bear River. Ou the face of an overhanging bluff 100 ft. High is a mineralized zone in the schist, which here has a strike east and west, with a dip of 22 deg. Into the bill. This zone is a quartz impreg nation of the schist, there being quite as much schist as quartz. The entire mass is, however, more or less' mine'ralized with lead carbonate and galena, and also carries iron pyrites. Little development has been done. Beyond a few shots put into the vein, and it is impossible at this stage to say the average values in the ore - body, as it is much decomposed, and it is probable that the greater part of the values have been leached out; but, judging from the results obtained on other claims, there is every reason to expect that it. May prove a valuable ore-body. A selected sample of the ore taken for assay gave: Lead, per zinc, per cent; gold, oz., and silver, ex. To the ton.
