He made a careful In Inspection - spection Inspection of the dislrlct between Ison and Creeches creeks, Elliott county. Kentucky, and he says that surface borings showed that a stratum ot Kimberllte Is close to the surface. Klmberllte : is the diamond bearinff stratum which has yielded su,ch enor enormous - mous enormous wealth of diamonds In ' South Africa. There are, in his opinion, also strong indications of garneU. Ulmenlte, olivine,' dopslde and mica. Bi his preliminary surface work be did not find any any diamonds, but he is inclined to believe that there may he diamond bearing deposits In that district. Mr. Draper does not consider It aft all strange that no diamonds have so far, been found In that, district, as the surface is coveied with a thick growth of vegetation. He points to the fact that many of the mines In the Trans Transvaal - vaal Transvaal were discovered only after twenty-five years of prospecting, although it was evident to mining experts that diamonds existed there. In his opin opinion - ion opinion there is no reason why the depos deposits - its deposits in Kentucky should not hear Just as large and One gems as those in South Africa, and he "av thai- . cost of mining would be a great deal cneaper in ientucky than in South Africa. A yield of only fire carat per load would be sufficient to make diamond mining In Kentucky payiu&. Mr. Draper expects to meet the members of the syndicate In London about two weeks hence and. will prob prob-aj.'y - aj.'y prob-aj.'y advise thorn u have extensive wring and Investigations made by competent diamond prospectors. He thinks it would cost about 1100,000 to explore the district and that It would require about two years' time to com complete - plete complete the work.
