Plans for the construction of a main tunnel 11,326 feet in length and two laterals totaling 5.h56 feet to drain the rich Leadviile mining district of Colorado, permit the reopening of scores of flooded mines and clear the way for possible production of three million tons of zinc-lead ores and one million tons of manganese ores for the war, were announced by Secretary Ickes. Idle since 1933, because of flooding, the workings cover an area of about eight square miles in and adjacent to Leadville. To prevent speculation in public lands within the Leadville area, the secretary has signed an order suspending further acquisition of such property by private interests. Undertaken by the bureau of mines pursuant to an act of congress appropriating SI. 400.

000 for this great drainage project, the opening of the Hooded region is expected to icsult the ultimate recovery of ores containing metals variously valued at 200 million dollars.
