GEORGE CHAPMAN & COMPANY JOO BAY STREET, TORONTO Charles Long Lac Issued Capital â€" 910,651 Shares Tliis property is in the Little Long Lac Camp some 170 miles nortli-cast of Port Arthur. The Charles Long Lac is locat- ed a short distance north of the Little Long Lac Mine; its ad- joining neighbors are Nordarm (controlled by Northern Canada Mines), Lafayette and Mar- quette. It is reported that Charles Long Lac are arranging a diamond drilling contract, and that worlc will be underway within 30 days. In view of the favorable geolo- gical conditions disclosed from recent diamond drilling by Mar- quette and Lafayette, this work is regarded with great interest and expectation. GEORGE CHAPMAN & COMPANY 200 BAY ST., TORONTO Lafayette Long Lac An excellent prospect, in our opinion. It has good neigh- bors, Charles Long Lac and Marquette Long Lac. Fa- vorable drilling results on Charles Long Lac would mean much to Lafayette. Recent Geological disclos- ures indicate that Lafayette ground has most favorable geological conditions. Lafayette owns a very sub- stantial holding of shares in Marquette Long Lac. To sum up â€" AN EXCEL- LENT PROSPECT. Map on Request GEORGE CHAPMAN «& COMPANY 200 BAY STREET, TORONTO TOVARICH- LARDER Loc.iled in Hearst, McVittie and McElroy Townships, in two closely adjoining groups, totalling over 800 acres. The East boundary of the Tovarich properties is less than a mile West of the Town of Larder Lake. Dia- mond Drilling proceeds; â€" and will be going on for some montiis. Latest word indicates that favorable Porphyry has al- ready been encountered. Im- portant values may be ob- tained at any lime. The main '"Larder Lake Break," as reported by Gov- ernment Blue Books, is lo- cated on Tovarich ground. We suggest that buying of Tovarich shares is an oppor- tunity; and suggest purchas- ing "'before the news", and while the price is still low. GEORGE CHAPMAN & COMPANY 200 BAY ST., TORONTO Pelangio Larder Issued Capital, 2,210,005 Shares This large property of 19 claims, at present inactive, extends from 1,600 feet east of Kerr-Addison's east point, to the Quebec boundary. Chesterville adjoins and, lies between Kerr-Addison and Pelangio; and is driving north- east on its 1,600 foot level. This drive is ap- proaching a parallel position to the Pelangio boundary. We expect to hear favorable news on this Chesterville de- velopment at an early date. Pelangio has quick assets consisting of Cash, Bonds, and immediate marketable Securiti'es totalling $42,- Soo.oo.
