Bibeau and McKay also located
the Lakeview group and made a shipment of high-grade ore, three tons of which
netted $900 in smelter returns. They did considerable work and some years
later bonded the property to Anyox interests, who did a small amount of
development work and then allowed the bond to lapse. A short time afterwards
the property was taken over by Victoria people, who organized the Lakeview
Mines Ltd., and drove a long crosscut tunnel to intersect the vein system at
depth, but the success anticipated was not met with and the mine lay idle
until recent years when it was taken over by H. D. Rochfort, who now operates
it on lease.
