UNCOVERING PYRITES.
Savannah Capital Developing North
Georgia.
Savannah, Oct. 12. —Savannah cap
ital is developing the pyrites mines
of North Georgia. Mr. George J.
Baldwin, of the Chestatee Pyrites
Company, is largely interested in the
uncovering of what are believed to
be rich deposits of pyrites on a tract
of over 1,000 acres of land about
twenty miles northwest of Gaines
ville on the line of the Gainesville
and Dahlonega Railroad, now being
built.
The tract covers the vein in a wide
belt on each side of the outcrop, and
extends a total distance of about
three miles running with the vein,
taking in all of its possible exten
v sions either way. A considerable
of money has been spent in
development work and
'diamond drilling. The prospecting
covered a distance of about 2.500 feet
on the vein, with the result that an
average width of about twenty-eight
feet of ore was ejyjosed from wall to
wall.
The mine is owned by Savannah
and Atlanta men and has been incor
porated as the Chestatee Pyrites
Company.
The vein is said to give promise of
ranking with the largest pyrites-pro
ducing veins in the United States,
and it is particularly interesting be
cause of its considerable copper and
gold contents. No pyrbotite occurs
in the ore, and its quality is reported
to be very fine. Chestatee river cuts
the property in two, and at this point
ft’uns through a narrow gorge and
over a high fall, where at
inconsiderable cost about 500 horse
power can be developed, which will
be used for mining purposes.
